More Info:
Angus Andrew, Aaron Hemphill and Julian Cross have returned with their most stipped-back and direct album yet. Simply titled LIARS, their 4th full-length (recorded in Berlin and LA and mixed in London by Erasure and Depeche Mode producer Gareth Jones). for this new album Liars have forgone theory for a more parctical approach, one based on traditional son structures and instrumental usage. LIARS is a set of songs only connected by the fact that no other band around could make music like this; an album that manges to blance the old, experimentally-minded Liars with an excitingly indisious new pop edge. The experiment has been an unqualified success.Reviews:
Oh, so it's self-titled time, huh? No more of this They Threw Us All in a Dead Drum and Stuck a Monument on Our Drowning Bodies malarkey, eh? Fair enough. Word is the unfairly maligned noise merchants have a straight-up heavy jam to or two to spare this time around, which would be quite the obtuse angle turn from their recent electronic output. "Plaster Casts of Everything" just plain rips, and nothing says summertime like a good, ripping guitar lick.
