Barbara is the third studio album by indie rock band We Are Scientists, released (digitally and physically) in the UK on June 14, 2010.

[6] Murray also noted there was in fact some interference from EMI: It didn't feel like a 'horror story' or anything, and they kind of ultimately let us do what we wanted to, but it just felt like there was bureaucracy.

[8] Murray wrote the majority of the songs on Barbara whilst staying between a rented cottage in Athens, Georgia, and Miami Beach, Florida.

[6] During January 2010, the band played in support of the new album on their "Big Fuckin’ Deal Tour", performing three small shows in Washington, D.C., Philadelphia and New Jersey, with temporary drummer Danny Lee Allen (of Youth Group).

[16] The dates were the band's first live performances since appearing at the All Points West Music & Arts Festival on August 2, 2009.

[2] In an interview prior to the Washington date, bassist Chris Cain stated "I think May is looking like a fairly solid release time, although we don’t have an actual week yet", as well as describing it poppy and hook-laden.

[21] The third single from Barbara was announced on October 11, 2010 to be "I Don't Bite", with pictures posted on Twitter in early August of the band filming the track's music video.
