Although initially lumped into the New York dance-punk scene of the early 21st century, they have come to be categorized by their dramatic stylistic shifts between albums, while retaining a consistent interest in rhythm and sound texture. Liars are one of the many contemporary bands to draw from the late 1970's British post-punk movement. Their first album, 2002's They Threw Us All in a Trench and Stuck a Monument on Top, bore some resemblance to the work of Delta 5 and Gang of Four, accenting their angular, acerbic punk with modern synths and drum machines. Liar's second album, 2004's They Were Wrong, So We Drowned, eschewed their debut's trendy post-punk aesthetic in favor of dissonant atmospherics and electronic soundscapes more akin to the sound of This Heat. That album stratified fans and critics alike, especially chafing with those who took to They Threw Us All for the clear dance/punk leanings of a number of that album's tracks (e.g. "We Live Northeast of Compton"). 2006 saw the release of Drum's Not Dead., which continued the direction they had taken with They Were Wrong but was met with a much more favorable critical reaction. 2007's self-tited LP, Liars, found the band once again shifting styles, this time towards 60's style garage rock and 70's proto-punk, all through the dark, effects-driven prism that Liars began channeling on They Were Wrong. While more straight-forward than their previous 2 LPs, the record contained the same focus on rhythm and experimentation with the deconstruction of traditional sounds. Similar to Drum's Not Dead. Liars was critically praised and found its way on to Best of 2007 lists. They released Sisterworld, in 2010, which continued in their experimental post-punk direction. Its deluxe edition came with a completely remixed version of the album, with tracks being remixed by artists such as Thom Yorke, Kazu Makino of Blonde Redhead and Carter Tutti. In 2012, they released WIXIW, which saw the band take an almost entirely electronic direction with their music.
On January 13, 2014, Liars premiered their single "Mess on a Mission" and announced the title of their 7th album as Mess, which was released on March 24 via Mute Records.[17]
TFCF
Edit
On February 20, 2017, Liars updated their site with a short video clip titled TFCF.[18] Another video was later added, called TFCF H, and then TFCF E, and so on. When taking the last letter of each of these videos, the word THEME is spelled out. On June 2, the band released four more videos which spell out the word FROM.[19] On June 15 and June 24, more videos were released spelling the words CRYING and FOUNTAIN, respectively. On May 18, Andrew announced a new Liars album to be released sometime in August, along with the amicable departure of founding member Aaron Hemphill. He will go on tour from August with a new backup band.
The initialism TFCF was the title of the band's LP which was released on August 25, 2017. Liars have, as a matter of course, sounded radically different with each album, pursuing new concepts and occupying diverse mindsets. On this, Liars’ eighth studio album, the bustling backdrops of Los Angeles, Berlin and New York have been replaced with a presence far more intimate and autobiographical.[citation needed]
The Apple Drop
Edit
On May 4, 2021, Liars announced the release of a new album, titled The Apple Drop, which was released on August 6.

Having just lost my sister to cancer, this movie hit me hard, as did this particular song. Her cancer started in her colon and it went to her liver and her brain. She died within 1 month of her diagnosis and she had lost all sight 2 weeks prior to her death. She didn't want to be placed in a hospice center. She wanted to be at home with me...….I honored her wishes and I was by her side when she took her last breath. RIP my seester."I won't run far

You know, this song makes me happy, relaxed.
It's kind of elementary with brash vocals overlapping, random melodies in the back an irregular drum beat.
I feel it dampens the message the song is sending, letting us know that they're acknowledging that they won't be there forever, but are still appreciative.
I've been at peace with the fact that I will eventually die ever since my late teens. This song reminds me of the first time I wrote that I was okay with death.
Till then, I guess it's all about figuring out what this living thing is all cracked up to be.
(love 50/50. Escaped a lot of hairy situations in life. I felt a lot of resemblance of Adam in myself, as well as his humor)
@xDmonLoonx
50/50 is the only movie that has made me cry since I was diagnosed with cancer. This movie is now my new favorite and for all the friends and family of people who have cancer I saw "Watch and learn from this movie" people run away when the going gets tough and all a cancer patient needs is someone to stick around and be there for them. Please just do that and I promise you they will be happier and feel better.

I drove around the U.S. in 2012 with 4 friends in an old Saab. 8000 miles in 3 weeks. I listened to this and church of pines every night going to sleep in a tent under the stars. Best time of my life. Truly magical stuff.
