Mathematicians

seen live

There is more than one artist with this name, but only one is currently recording and touring: 1.) Mathematicians from the Tri-County Region of Upstate New York are the loudest band, ever. The music is trans-genre. The effect is a dance party. The live show is a hallucine-genic amalgamation of music, live visual projections and midi-controlled lighting sequences capable of shaking arenas or turning a house party into a small nuclear explosion. The band members are actually not good at math. Some have speculated that this marginalization by academia is the impetus for the trio's punk rock DIY ethos and aesthetic. Albert Gorithm IV plays drums/pad box/computer/AV light bomb. Dewi Decimal Plays keyboards/key boxs/guitar/vocoder/MIDI light bombs. Pete Pythagoras is the M.C. and plays bass guitar. The trio share vocals. Mathematicians have toured the country from coast to coast, played around 500 shows in the past four years and released two albums all without the support of a label. The first two albums, Level I and Level II, are entirely self-produced. In 2009 the band released a self-produced DVD of feature length proportions; Mathematicians Transdimensional Odyssey of Doom. This project was a partnership with Muckraker Films and Cinematic Weapons of Mass Creation. It combines footage from over 100 shows with 12 minutes of anime. Currently, Mathematicians are recording a third album and preparing for a 12th national tour. Listen to some of their songs on their MySpace pag...
