* GenreBusting: By Monda's own admission, their sound isn't usually what is thought of as progressive rock, yet there is no other label to describe them with.

* GenreBusting: By Monda's own admission, their sound isn't usually what is thought of as progressive rock, yet there is no other label to describe them with. Swancore is the most commonly applied label; while they have only circumstantial association with [[Music/DanceGavinDance Will Swan]], they are sonically fairly similar to most of his bands and the bands associated with him and have a fair amount of fandom overlap.

*AlbumIntroTrack: All three of their studio albums include these in some form:
**''Maps of Non-Existent Places'' has the aptly titled "Prelude".
**''Stranger Heads Prevail'' not only includes such a track ("Prologue: A Faint Applause..."), they also [[InvertedTrope invert the trope]] with a concluding track ("Epilogue: ...And the Clever Depart"), making this an example of BookEnds as well.
**''Terraformer'' has the instrumental track "Wrinkle".
*BookEnds: ''Stranger Heads Prevail'' includes similar tracks featuring just vocals and a piano at the beginning and end of the album.



* GenreBusting: By Monda's own admission, their sound isn't usually what is thought of as progressive rock, yet there is no other label to describe them with.

Thank You Scientist is a New Jersey-based, GenreBusting ProgressiveRock band. Formed by guitarist Tom Monda in 2009, the band is primarily notable for their incorporation of various genres of music into a distinct style, thanks to their seven-piece structure featuring trumpet, saxophone, and violin alongside the more typical rock instruments. They are currently signed to Evil Ink Records, a label owned by Music/CoheedandCambria frontman Claudio Sanchez, and have opened for his band on multiple tours as a result.
