SISTEWORLD (LIMITED EDITION)

The second disc of the 2 CD release sees each track on Sisterworld reinterpreted by a host of artists including Thom Yorke Devendra Banhart and Alan Vega (full tracklisting below) while the unique packaging allows a surreal glimpse into the Sisterworld concertina. Liars is a three-piece American band consisting of Australian-born Angus Andrew (vocals/guitar) Aaron Hemphill (percussion guitar synth) and Julian Gross (drums). Although initially lumped into the New York post-punk revival scene of the early 21st century they have come to be categorised by their dramatic stylistic shifts between albums while retaining a consistent interest in rhythm and sound texture. This is the Liars fifth album. Sisterworld the follow up to Liars (2007) was written and recorded in Los Angeles by Liars and Tom Biller and the first Liars album to be wholly recorded in the USA since 2004 s They Were Wrong So We Drowned. Sisterworld Liars boldest and most exhilarating record to date is a dense art-pop thrill from start to finish and features the new single Scissor described by the NME as quot;a feral thrillerquot. Sisterworld is Liars own space completely devoid of influence somewhere remote from the false promises and discarded dreams amassed in LA. In it Liars explore the underground support systems created to deal with loss of self to society.
