ONTOLOGICS is an experimental, multi-instrumentalist duo that has been recognized for fusing genres like progressive rock, hip-hop, electronica, and jazz with sharp lyricism and an explosive live presence. Their lyrical depth and highly structured nature of their genre bending has been compared to the meticulous arrangement of the jazz-inflected work of Frank Zappa. Originally based in Providence, RI, the duo features singer/songwriter Ian Campopiano and drummer Andrew Morris.
Their latest release, LP IV, It's Safe To Say The Veil Is Thinning (Release Date: 2/29/24) features the return of P-NUT / Aaron Wills of 311 for the third consecutive record, and they are currently working on their fifth collaborative effort for Ontologics LP V (Tba 2026-27).
Prior to working with Ontologics on LP IV, P-NUT collaborated first on their sophomore album, on track “Primal Discourse”, and previously said of the duo, “they turned this song into like a science fiction masterpiece. And if we can’t beat that, I think we should just do a cover of their song" - P-Nut, popdose.com interview, referencing the “Go” Demo.
