18 March 2016, 17:12 | Written by Laurence Day

We Are Scientists have announced LP5, Helter Seltzer, and shared first taste "Buckle".

Speaking about the spectacularly messy visuals for "Buckle" - raw eggs, OJ, silly string, mustard, cake, glass, and more get splattered across the face of bassist Chris Cain - singer Keith Murray says: “Most of our videos start with some kind of longstanding desire that we’re aiming to fulfil, and, well, I’d always wanted to dump food all over Chris’s face. Not in an angry way. I just thought it would be fun, and man I was right”

Helter Seltzer is out 22 April via 100% Records. Former keyboard player Max Hart has produced the LP.
