			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mute bringen dieser Tage und fast genau ein Jahr nach dem Album &#8220;The Apple Drop&#8221; das Albumdebüt der australisch-amerikanischen Liars, namentlich &#8220;They Threw Us All in a Trench and Stuck a Monument on Top&#8221; (ursprünglich Gern Blandsten Records 2001), neu auf buntem, recycletem Vinyl heraus. Mit ihrem Dance Punk-Crossover erhielt die Combo seinerzeit schnell internationale Anerkennung von Fans und Journaille. Zur Single-Auskopplung &#8220;Mr Your On Fire Mr&#8221;, das vor zwanzig Jahren stark zum Bekanntwerden des Projektes Beitrug, ist gleichzeitig ein neues Video erschienen. Das Release ist der Auftakt einer geplanten Reihe an Wiederveröffentlichungen aus der Liars-Diskografie.  <a href="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/trenchmonument.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-30622" title="trenchmonument" src="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/trenchmonument.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="1200" /></a><span id="more-30621"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;They Threw Us All In A Trench And Stuck A Monument On Top is the first installment of the new Liars reissue series, where every two months an album from the back catalog will be released on limited edition recycled color vinyl. The campaign kicks off with Liars’ debut album, originally released in 2001 and recorded over two days in Brooklyn, New York with producer Steve Revitte (The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion &amp; Beastie Boys). At the time of release Liars were Melbourne born Angus Andrew (vocals &amp; pedals), Aaron Hemphill from LA (guitar &amp; drum machine) and Nebraskians Pat Nature (bass &amp; synthbox) and drummer Ron Albertson.&#8221; (Mute)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Angus Andrew kündigt drei Jahre nach seinem letzten Longplayer &#8220;Titles with the Word Fountain&#8221; eine neue Liars-LP an. Das Album &#8220;The Apple Drop&#8221; wird Anfang August in allen gängigen Formaten inklusive einer limitierten Anzahl von Flexidiscs in den Regalen stehen. Im Unterschied zu den vorigen Veröffentlichungen offenbaren die Songs ein opulenteres und vielgestaltigeres Klangbild, was auch darauf zurückzuführen ist, dass Andrew diesmal nicht solo, sondern in enger Zusammenarbeit mit musikalischen Gästen zuwerke gegangen ist. Neben der an den Lyics beteiligten Mary Pearson unterstützten der Avantgarde-Jazzer Laurence Pike das Projekt am Schlagzeugt, und Cameron Deyell steuerte eine Vielzahl an Instrumenten bei, die dem Album ein weniger elektronisches Gepräge verleihen. Dennoch spielt die anschließende Verfremdung und Überarbeitung der vielen Soundkomponenten auch diesmal eine wichtige Rolle. Das Stück &#8220;Sekwar&#8221; ist bereits in einem Video zu sehen, in dem Regisseur Clemens Habicht die Musik wie eine Reise ins Innere des Kopfes und somit des Bewusstseins inszeniert. &#8220;The Apple Drop&#8221; erscheint bei Mute/[PIAS]. <a href="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/liarstheappledrop.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-25519" title="liarstheappledrop" src="http://africanpaper.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/liarstheappledrop.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="1200" /></a><span id="more-25517"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;Constructing these songs felt akin to dragging them through a wormhole.[...] I’d stretch and transform the studio sounds in the computer, pushing patterns and melodies through filters and sequencers, experimenting with probability based algorithms. Despite recording predominantly live instruments, the computer is still the most powerful and dominant element in the work, allowing the songs to travel away from me &#8211; toward AI &#8211; and back again. Momentum and revolution were themes I wanted to explore, to give the listener this sense of transformation and to feel like you were being transported through a wormhole.[...] Since Liars’ first album I’ve been taking SSRIs to deal with anxiety. I’d tried to get off these over the years but it wasn’t until working on The Apple Drop that I discovered the unique ability of psilocybin to disrupt the normal communication networks in the brain. This helped me gradually remove myself from the overpowering chemical dependency I’d endured since I began making music. I realised I was developing a musical document to my brain’s re-mapping of its neural patterns.</p>

<p>It felt like a voyage and I began to see The Apple Drop as simultaneously a point of departure and of arrival… [...] Throughout Liars’ history I have consistently tried to develop new methods of creating music. In each project I’ve essentially abandoned previous methods and attempted to instead learn different ways of writing and producing songs. Where once I perceived this journey as a straight line, I&#8217;m increasingly realising my trajectory is more akin to a spiral. As new ideas are generated, older ones take on new meaning and evolve further.&#8221; (Angus Andrews)</p>
