Liar

VINYL FORMAT. RESTOCK. Recorded October '92. "A frightening jolt begins [Liar]. It is just one of many. Liar is a relentless serious of snaps and bangs and 'Boilermaker' is an excellent representation of the well-honed force that fuels much of the album. 'Boilermaker' tumbles and staggers, but always moves forward. It's a brief, twisted tale of infidelity full of rapid stop-starts, mewled vocals and a powerful, rumbling break. This is inspired rock.

If 'Boilermaker' is inspired, 'Gladiator' is miraculous. Possibly the greatest summation of the band’s powers, 'Gladiator' is a constant battery of alternating explosions. The guitar-bass-drum triplets fracture your skull, allowing Yow's gremlin-junkie vocals to climb inside and play with your synapses. His screams are frightening ( 'More than aaaaan, more than aaaan, more than aaaaan') and the cauterizing wail of an ending leads you to question the meaning of 'explosive'." - Stylus Magazine
