Liars have, as a matter of course, sounded radically different with each album, pursuing new concepts and occupying diverse mindsets. On this, Liars’ eighth studio album, the bustling backdrops of Los Angeles, Berlin and New York have been replaced with a presence far more intimate and autobiographical as Liars once again boldly step out of their comfort zone into vastly new musical territory.
The album’s reinvention of the Liars paradigm - blurring the lines between electronic and acoustic, between the experimental impulse and the addictive pop sensibility - is evidence that Angus’ creative energies remain as healthy as ever, even given the upheaval within the group.
‘TFCF’ was written and recorded by Liars (Angus Andrew). Butchy Fuego, who performed live with Liars following Julian Gross’ departure in 2014, plays drums on three tracks.
Mute was originally founded by Daniel Miller in 1978 with the release of his own 7″ – The Normal ‘TVOD’ / ‘Warm Leatherette’.
From there, Mute has grown from Miller’s one-man operation to a world renowned record label with offices in London and New York. Along with several label subsidiaries, including NovaMute, The Grey Area and Parallel Series, Mute also runs the publishing arm, Mute Song with Daniel Miller remaining heavily involved in Mute’s creative output.
