Customer Reviews:
Holy crap.......2006-02-16
Probably the best album of its kind since Gang of Four's Entertainment! Forget Franz Ferdinand, the Futureheads, Bloc Party, and the virtually countless other bands ripping off Go4; this is fantastic. Liars are probably the only band doing this formula right AND nailing the attitude that should go along with it. Great stuff for the post-punk fan who's less than thrilled as to where the style's heading.
hooked on this one for over a year now.......2006-01-19
light, bouncey, fast and fun... sludgey, wet and creepy-- this record is totally visceral. there's speed to it, there's groove to it... its catchy, garagey and trashey. thematically dark for the most part, but never losing its sense of humor.
there's nothing technically stellar about any of the instrumentalists, so if you're into virtuosity then obviously you won't like this cd. maybe check out the dave matthews band. however if you like good song writing with that communicates mood and attitude quite effectively, this is a great record for you
it's only original if you know jack about music.......2005-03-02
While I respect their nihilistic musical outlook and punkish approach to making a satire of pop music, so far Liars have really only succeeded at being one of the new models of psuedo-intellectual pretension and avante-garde wankery. Let's face facts. No one could dispute that when John Cage was performing four minutes of pure silence or randomly plucking musical notes out of hat, that he had the musical right to, and, in his own way, was proving that anything could be music. But just because anything can be music (or art in general), doesn't mean that there can't be levels of quality. Anyone could do what Cage did (and countless of idiots who can barely play their instruments do---they call it noise), anyone could do what the SEx Pistols did (and tons of boring generic punk bands are now in the surplus of millions), and---if more people were aware of bands like Gang Of Four---anyone could do what Liars have done here. It's not original, it's not interesting, and there's no talent whatsoever put into it. Wake up, Liars fans. THe only way to make music that is truly interesting and different is too learn as much about music as you truly can---not the other way around. By knowing as much about music as is possible, you can thereby discern what has and hasn't been done, and as a consequence, pull off good music that is both intriguing and talented. If you want music that is truly nihilstic and insane, I suggest the all-over-the-place music of Mr. Bungle and John Zorn. If you want something that's more stylistically rock-based but maintains the same unorthodox unable-to-be-pigeonholed style, I suggest Thinking Fellers Union and Polvo. In the meantime, these underappreciated and truly forward-thinking bands will continue to get neglected because of no-talent hacks like Liars. You can almost hear someone saying "LIke, oh my god, these guys are so different because they don't care about their music and make a bunch of sloppy, half-assed songs." If you've ever said this, turn off your MTV2 and start doing some honest musical searching.
P.S.: Following your debut album up with a sophmore effort full of noisy ambience and experimental peices is not original. It was done with Sonic Youth's "Bad Moon Rising". Strait-up noise is boring anyway. ARtists like Merzbow have already drained that genre for all it's worth.
Sorry...I tried...I really did............2004-03-05
After reading the reviews for this album and hearing about it over and over from friends, I decided I would buy it and give it a listen. It seemed to be right up my alley....I am usually very pleased with anything that comes out on mute....So I listened...and listened and listened...I really wanted to like this disc...I tried....I really did...but this is so awfull...so boring...so completely unoriginal....Its been done 100 times before by better...much better...but then it wouldnt be too hard for anyone to do better than this....an excruciatingly painful listen...no redeeming quality what so ever.
These guys need to stop mimicing their influences and have an independant thought or two..then give it another go.
No, you're not Gang of Four.......2004-01-30
Brothers and sisters, there's a new sound rattling the streets of our beloved city. It's the sound of punk-funk revolution, returning the indie crowd to the glory days of John Lydon's Public Image Ltd. and Nick Cave's The Birthday Party. The genre is a distant cousin of electro-clash (which is now officially so ten minutes ago in indie circles), an incendiary mold of hardcore, avant-punk dynamics and pounding disco rhythms. It's like a bizarre orgy involving seminal 70s punk group Wire and seminal 70s disco superstar Donna Summer.
In one corner of the ring, we have damaged poets Liars. Their debut LP, They Threw Us In A Trench And Stuck A Monument On Top is a career-opening manifesto. Every single barked lyric is a fiery salvo, and likewise every single thrashed drumbeat is phlegm, spat into the face of anyone who doesn't care. Anyone who doesn't understand.
Opening track "Grown Men Don't Fall Into the River, Just Like That" (behold the massively pretentious song titles) begins with a bit of murmuring about how everybody needs a hobby. Or something like that. But this is merely foreplay and the track quickly explodes into a thunderous, pounding rhythm. Then, singer Angus Andrew (who is actually Australian) brings out the bomb - "We've got our fingers on the pulse of America!" he squeals, perhaps overoptimistically considering the recent Republican takeover of our country.
From there on, it just gets better. The record is equal parts earsplitting guitar noise, chunky funky bass and (gasp) danceable drum parts. "We Live NE of Compton" is a startlingly malicious piece of punk which seems to be grabbing the listener by the throat, shoving him against the wall and proceeding to beat the living daylights out of him. Then, it suddenly all ends, and Angus mournfully whispers "the city loves you." Wow.
Despite all this, easily the best moment on the record is when they unleash the synthesizers and go into full-blown Gang of Four style with "Mr. You're On Fire Mr." It's ridiculously catchy, computerized drum beats and silly "ooo--weee-oooh" sounds popping up where it sounds like guitar should be. In what is perhaps a nod to Nirvana, it begins with the soon to be immortal line "Do the twist!" before dissolving into an incredible call-and-response chorus.
However, all is not well in Liars' world. The record at times falls into self-indulgence - witness the 20 minute repeated loop that closes out final track "This Dust Makes That Mud." Also, while Angus and crew have agitprop grooves down-pat, they have not yet mastered the art of song writing. "Loose Nuts on the Veladrome," while powerful, holds the promise of highs that it does not attain due to the lack of nuance throughout the song.
These quibbles aside however, They Threw Us In A Trench And Stuck A Monument On Top is a promising document from a band that you know will keep on getting better. For now, it's enough to make us dance and think at the same time - and in these troubled times, what more could you ask for?

"Bateman & Temple...double the listening pleasure".......2001-06-29
Paul Bateman and "The City Of Prague Philarmonic Orchestra" extend their listening pleasure with this latest release ~ "Shakespeare At The Movies"...backed by the world renown "Crouch End Festival Chorus" led by their Choir Master - David Temple. Also appearing...Kenneth Alwyn and Nic Raine to this already "blue-ribbon" 2-CD-Set of the finest music ever to grace the big screen.
Composers who's who is the marquee'...Miklos Rozsa & Sir William Walton from the '40s & '50s...Michael J. Lewis, Nino Rota, Dimitri Shostakovich from the '60s...John Scott from the '70s...Craig Armstrong, Patrick Doyle, Pietro Mascagni & Stephen Warbeck from the '80s, '90s & 2000...each sharing their God-given-talent with the masses, the love of film scoring.
Must mention a highlight in this awesome collection..."ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA" (1972), haunting in content, mixed with heavenly voices and a wonderful flute solo, strings sweeping as a flowing breeze centering around the brass section...over six minute suite in length...composed, arranged and orchestrated by John Scott...conducted by Nic Raine, excels with a love theme pouring generously in each measure, followed by passionate counterpoint, overlayed with a veil of sweet melody.
The entire collection is a film-score-buffs "pot of gold", just waiting at the end of your rainbow...powerful, overwhelming and outstanding performances from all who contributed...James Fitzpatrick (Producer) never fails with each endeavor, Reynold da Silva (executive producer), Paul Bateman, Rickie Clark and Nic Raine (associate producers)...you might try other albums from Silva, all worthy of a good listen ~ "Crimson Pirate:Swashbucklers Of The Silver Screen" (SSD-3009)..."The Mark Of Zorro" (SSD-3010)..."Cinema Century 2000" (STD-5023)..."Alien Invasion:Space & Beyond 2" (SSD-1083)..."Space 3:Beyond The Final Frontier" (SSD-1112)..."Cinema's Classic Romances" (SILKD-6018)..."Bond Back In Action 2" (SSD-1119)

THE CHILD DEVIANT.......2007-01-29
Yes! Excellent electro-industrial music with serious angst. "Hate My Fu**ing Job", and ""Guys suck, Chicks suck" being the stand out tracks. BTW, this band is excelent live. I find it almost amazing that more people don't know about this band.

Excellent storytellling and insight..........2004-12-10
This was my 2nd c.d. of Ms. Kirk's to buy and I have always enjoyed it. While I feel that her work is not for everyone, she is still extremely approachable and not at all 'GARBAGE' as one reviewer commented. She's definitely an artist to keep an eye on and with any luck will gain an even larger following.
I'm also pleased to see that Deanna enjoys mixing musical genres and styles together in a way that complements each other. I was so inspired by her cover of "Song of Bernadette" that I bought the sheet music (found in a Bette Midler song book) for use in my wedding. Too call her music 'trash' or 'garbage' is a crime.
A great singer in more than one style.......2000-09-21
I have owned this CD for more than three years, and it's still one of my favorites. I also enjoy Deanna's jazz singing, but don't concur with 'A music fan' in dismissing this work. Quite the contrary, this album contains for me the reference version of Leonard Cohen's beautiful 'Song of Bernadette' - a remarkable, thrilling performance. All but two of the other songs (one exception, 'Maybe' is also for me a standout) are written or co-written by Deanna Kirk herself. The result is a highly personal album -- both lyrically and musically -- that is not afraid to experiment and take risks. For example in the splendid 'Waitress Song' Kirk affects an intoxicated slur in singing the laments of an aspiring actress who's waiting for a part other than "hooker, bimbo, girlfriend, or psycho." Likewise in the final track, Kirk attempts to recreate the environment in which her Nana sung lullabies. In summary, if your interest is for great singing and something off beat and original, then this deserves your consideration.
What a piece of GARBAGE!.......2000-08-18
Deanne Kirk sold out to make this CD of MUZAK. This is contemaray garbage not worthy of her singing. Just get Live At Deanna's where she sings jazz standards with a little swingin' jazz combo, but stay the heck away from this junk.
What a treat!!!.......1999-05-05
I stumbled upon Deanna Kirk's album several years ago and fell in love with it. It's one of those CD's that you just put on repeat and listen to over and over again. Just discovered that she has done another album and have ordered it.

The Strand's debut CD 'In The Trench' explores the gritty underbelly of Industrial-Dance music. Dave Strand's shouting is emphasized by an electronic rhythm and nicely contrasted by the passionate female vocals of Kimberly Brown.
