Liars: "WIXIW" (Video)

A new video from Liars: This is the title track from their most recent release WIXIW, which was reviewed in 2012 at No Ripcord.

In addition to their new video, Liars will be playing two New York dates, one of which will take place at The Temple of Dendur in The Metropolitan Museum of Art.  This is one of the best ideas I've ever heard and apparently it's all part of an exhibit dubbed PUNK: Chaos to Couture.  The show is unfortunately sold out, but nevertheless, information on the event is available below.



The video and all links and info were provided by Mute.


 
This past June Liars released their sixth studio album, WIXIW, along with a string of remixes and videos for their singles “No.1 Against the Rush” and “Brats”.

Today they unveil the NEW video for “WIXIW”directed by the Los Angeles-based artist Alex/2Tone. Unsettling and captivating the video for “WIXIW” has a momentum indicative of the album as a whole, moving, shifting, twisting and turning, but with no limit, no end and no beginning. Realizing the track’s agitated state, Alex/2Tone drew from the past while incorporating the bands love for basketball, calling the finished product “the legend of Sisyphus as told by a young ballplayer lost in a haze of codeine and prescription weed”.

Looking ahead to MAY as a part of the Wordless Music Series, Liars will be playing two very special shows in New York. The first show on May 18th will take place at The Temple of Dendur At The Metropolitan Museum Of Art and will feature multi-media and site-specific surprises as part of the MET’s "PUNK: Chaos to Couture" exhibit. For more information on this sold out show head to the MET's website. In case you missed snagging tickets for that show be sure to grab yours for the band’s Brooklyn Masonic Temple performance on the 19th. Tickets are still available here. For those of you traveling this summer be sure to note that Liars will be performing at both Primavera (Barcelona and Portugal) and Sonar (Barcelona).

WIXIW, Liars' 6th studio album, was released June 5th of last year and is available now digitally and on CD and Vinyl formats.
