One of the greatest and most innovative bands of the last decade, Liars are never content to rest on their laurels - releasing five incredible albums since 2001, each with its own sound; an evolution of the last.
"Compelling as ever, it's an unadulterated elation to have them back with us"
Recorded in L.A. and self-produced by the band (with additional production from Daniel Miller and mixing by Tom Biller), WIXIW is hard to shake, tough to pin down, and impossible to get out of one’s head after even an initial listen. Simultaneously the most accessible, and most challenging, release from these art/ indie/ noise/ experimental/ whatever iconoclasts, it’s unlike anything in Liars’ repertoire – which is pretty much business as usual at this stage in their career. WIXIW is actually Liars’ sixth full-length album as a band, which comprises Andrew, Aaron Hemphill, and Julian Gross. As such, it provides both a summation of Liars’ work up to now, and a complete break from anything you’d ever heard the band do previously.
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.
