Tfcf

Liars have been in a state of flux their whole career. Dance-punk, experimental rock, spooky ambience and hard-nosed techno make up some of their many mutations. Surprisingly, they’ve thrived with each new sound. TFCF is a fractured, aching record, formed from clattering drum loops, eerie acoustics and hollowed-out vocals. Most of the songs lead into each other while still allowing each song to transform into something new and interesting.
