Product Overview
Liars - Mess (Recycled Coloured Vinyl | Double Vinyl Vinyl)
‘MESS’ is the next instalment of the Liars’ recycled coloured vinyl reissue series, released alongside the album’s 10th anniversary.
Originally released in 2014, ‘MESS’ was the sound of Liars not only facing their fears but also chewing them up and spitting them back out in all their Technicolor glory. Written and recorded by Angus Andrew and Aaron Hemphill, produced by Angus and mixed by Timothy ‘Q’ Wiles, this record was less concerned with place compared to previous albums, and saw the band back in their own studio in LA.
Angus explained at the time of release, “We go from one extreme to the other. Working on the last record was really doubtful and paranoid, and that’s fine, but it just meant that when work started on this one, it was the exact opposite. It was way more instinctual, fun, and confident.”
Recycled coloured double vinyl, including lyrics. “‘MESS’ is characteristically confident and brash, but humane and enduring. In short, it’s up there with the rest of their unerringly brilliant backcatalogue.” - The Line of Best Fit (8.5/10)
“...Liars continue to show, comfort zones only exist as refuges for the unimaginative.” - NME (4/5)
