Following the straight down the line thrills of their Berlin-wrought fourth album Liars, Angus Andrew, Aaron Hemphill and Julian Goss moved to LA for a year to make its follow up, Sisterworld. Here is its story, told by the genial trio themselves.»

They’ve soaked themselves in a new city and emerged renewed, again. So long as they never settle down, they’ll be just fine.»
We're all pretty stoked for Liars' new record, Sisterworld, the band's first full-length since 2007's self-titled. What is more, now, is that the expanded version of this record will contain work by some of the indieverse's brightest shining stars, believe it or not!»
Strap yourself in for an epic: DiS sits Deerhunter's Bradford Cox down with Liars and lets the tape roll. The temperature soon rises»
Liars' Aaron Hemphill is, along with his bandmates, lost in Bologna. On the phone to DiS the guitarist talks about being a workaholic, and how the trio appreciates the acclaim that keeps coming their way»

Believe you me, this section – which collects together the albums we’ve placed at numbers 44 to 21 – was no easier to assemble than the preceding chapter (click here if you’re yet to look over our selections from 66 to 45). In fact, we’ve suffered more headaches over the last few weeks, because of this undertaking alone, than at any other time in our lives. Perhaps, anyway: we do enjoy the odd pint...»
Brooklyn noise-merchants release third album by way of Berlin, which takes their dance-punk into the realms of world-beat, primal drumming, pychotic scree, droning and feedback and God knows what else. It also happens to be a bona-fide masterpiece, just by the by.»
DiS meets Berlin-based avant-rockers Liars in a strange London hotel: the hallways are chilled to penguin levels, while strange monitors flicker with computer-generated landscapes and scratches-on-a-negative static and fuzz. We're uncomfortable from the moment we stroll through the building's automated revolving door, but we find the band calm to the point of slumber...»
‘They Were Wrong, So We Drowned’ is a mixed bag of pulped fashion and shredded Williamsburg sanity. Frequently unpleasant, but consistently interesting.»
