First of all, LIARS are great. Even though they have songs I don't like, I love them simply for being, well, LIARS. Constantly changing their music from release to release. That's how a band should be.

Second of all:

"

The creepiest part on Einstürzende Neubauten's new concept album, Perpetuum Mobile, arrives at three minutes and 33 seconds into track three. Coincidence? Vocalist Blixa Bargeld has just collapsed his own weighty voice into a whisper, miked close enough that you can hear the click of his tongue. As the silence gets heavier, his voice is reverse-looped, as if he's been sucked into a quiet wave--a spine-chilling moment on a record whose expressed theme is "a pandemonium of catastrophes." The devil finds its other half on new Liars EP, There's Always Room on the Broom. By lovingly swiping the cover art of Neubauten's Strategies Against Architecture '80-83 (they painted a little witch's hat and broom on the EN logo), Aaron Hemphill (guitars) and Angus Andrew (vocals) make a few points, two them being: 1. the Liars are tricksters 2. the Liars are tricksters on some industrial shit.
