Liars have announced a new album, tour and a surprise. Thom Yorke has remixed one of the Liars tracks on the new album.
The trio from Los Angeles, who have supported Radiohead and their last North American Tour, are set to release their new album on March 9. The band said about new album ‘Sisterworld’, “We’re interested in the alternate spaces people create in order to maintain identity in a city like LA. Environments where outcasts and loners celebrate a skewered relationship to society.”
Sisterworld will be out in a special expanded version which will feature an additional collection of “remixes and reinterpretations” several musicians including Thom Yorke.
Angus Andrew of Liars said: “On this project we wanted to help develop and expand the role of the remix, particularly to engage artists less acknowledged for their work in the field. They were asked to ‘re-interpret’ the song by any means necessary and the result is definitely the most exciting collaborative effort we’ve been involved in.”
Other artists are Tunde Adebimpe of TV on the Radio, Bradford Cox of Deerhunter, Melvins, Blonde Redhead, Alan Vega and Chris & Cosey.
