Artist:	THROBBING GRISTLE
Title:	Greatest Hits
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 1001CD

1997 reissue of the group's defining compilation, featuring "United", "Subhuman", "Hamburger Lady", etc. Dedicated to Martin Denny, liner notes by the late Claude Bessey! "Turning the idea of rock music on its head and injecting it with a lethal dose of electronica, Gristle was light years ahead of its time and suffered endless persecution from the British government because of their wild ideas. On this ironically titled collection, the band offers 11 tracks that plant the seeds for a number of genres. Standing heads and tails above the rest of their contemporaries, this is the best place to first discover Throbbing Gristle's difficult but rewarding body of work."

Title:	D.O.A.
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 1094CD

1998 CD reissue of the 2nd TG album, originally issued in 1978; digitally remastered by Chris Carter. Adds 2 bonus tracks from the legendary Sordide Sentimental 7" ("We Hate You (Little Girls)" & "Five Knuckle Shuffle". "Breaking from the live sound of the previous Second Annual Report, D.O.A. finds the group assembling collages of computer noise, cassette tapes on fast forward, looped feedback and tape hiss, surreptitiously recorded conversation, threatening phone calls, and much more, all to a grand alienating effect, the sound of a gray day in a British tower block after all the drugs have run out."

Title:	20 Jazz Funk Greats
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 1095CD

1`997 reissue of this classic 1979 album. "It's a break in the clouds from Throbbing Gristle's pummeling noise and a first glimpse at the continuing pop influence on the TG/PTV axis, but 20 Jazz Funk Greats still isn't best described by its title. If there is such a thing as a funky Throbbing Gristle LP, however, this could well be it. 'Hot on the Heels of Love', 'Hamburger Lady' and 'Six Six Sixties' add only occasional bits of distortion between the rigid sequencer lines. 20 Jazz Funk Greats is the best compromise between TG's early industrial aesthetic and the reams of industrial-dance and dark synth-pop groups that used the album as a stepping stone to crossover appeal."

Artist:	HAWTIN & SVEN VATH, RICHIE
Title:	The Sound Of The Third Season
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 3073CD

"Ibiza has an extensive European based club history which existed long before Tong, Oakenfold and the like arrived on its shores. There had been a unique glamour of European-ness to the island's club culture since the '70s which, by the late '90s, had begun to be seriously threatened by British KIub Korporations. In 2000, Frankfurt based Sven Väth made a crucial decision to open a night at Ibiza's club Amnesia, utilizing the exclusive talent signed to his Cocoon booking agency. The club night, called Cocoon, featured a stellar array of pan-global DJs and live acts, and was founded upon Vath's musical policy of quality techno and house music. The Sound of the Third Season features both Hawtin and Vath in the mix together showcasing the top drawer tunes from the 2002 season at Cocoon in Ibiza. Included in the mix are conversations, sound effects, and atmospheres from the club night, capturing the excitement and euphoria of actually being at the club. In effect, the WORKS! With a 2002 season that has featured Vath, Hawtin, Josh Wink, Funk D'Void, DJ Hell, Green Velvet, Marco Carola, Ricardo Villalobos, John Acquaviva, and more, Cocoon has proved itself as THE club for quality music on Ibiza."

Artist:	PLASTIKMAN
Title:	Closer
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 3081CD

"Exactly a decade since releasing Plasikman's Sheet One album (Novamute 1993), Plastikman's new album Closer does just that. Brings the listener a little closer to the artist himself. It further delves into the mind of this unique figure in the electronic music world, making this his most personal work ever. In addition, for the first time in his career Richie Hawtin (aka Plastikman) uses his own voice in his music. The resulting album -- familiar yet alien, queasy yet comforting, intensely personal yet veiling its confessions in pseudonym and technological disguise -- is, perhaps, the first Richie Hawtin record that truly arrives from his mind to yours. 'Instead of making a soundscape for people to lose themselves in, it's more like being locked inside my own head,' reflects Hawtin."

Artist:	THROBBING GRISTLE
Title:	Mutant TG
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 3083CD

"Almost thirty years on since their inception from the ashes of performance art troupe/media guerrilla cell Coum Transmissions, Throbbing Gristle's challenging, expressive and self-empowering manifesto's and music are as relevant today as they were back in the bleak mid 70s. This, the first ever collection of Throbbing Gristle remixes Mutant TG highlights just how significant they still are. From a world of free parties, performance art and punk attitude Hedonastik turn 'What A Day' into a psychotic dub fuelled mantra and Carl Craig shows his more experimental side via 'Still Walking' with a mix that reverbs and coil's around itself like a trapped snake. Finally, two of TG's original line-up -- Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti make mincemeat of Hamburger Lady and turn two tracks into one with HotHeelsUnited."

Artist:	T.RAUMSCHMIERE
Title:	Sick Like Me
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$4.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 3085CD

"'Sick Like Me' is the first single from T.Raumschmiere's forthcoming album Blitzkrieg Pop. Containing more apparent punk rock influences as well as his own vocals, T.Raumschmiere also enlisted the help of his friends Ellen Allien (Bpitch Control), Sandra Nasic (from Guano Apes), Quasimodo Jones and Judith Juillerat (both from T.Raumschmiere's own Shitkatapult label) and more to build Blitzkrieg Pop into an alternate universe's punk rock anthem. 'Sick Like Me' features alternate versions and remixes by Motor."

Title:	Blitzkrieg Pop
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 3086CD

"T.Raumschmiere returns in 2005 with a brand new album, his second for Novamute, Blitzkrieg Pop. Recorded in late 2004 and early 2005 in Berlin, Blitzkrieg Pop sees T.Raumschmiere build upon his hybrid of punk rock and electronic music unleashed on the masses in the form of his 2003 album Radio Blackout. Containing more apparent punk rock, twisted rock and ambient influences as well as his own vocals, T.Raumschmiere also enlisted the help of his friends Ellen Allien (from Berlin's Bpitch label) on 'Diving In Whiskey,' Quasimodo Jones on 'A Mess,' Sandra Nasic (from European rockers Gauno Apes) on 'A Very Loud Lullaby' plus French newcomer Judith Juillerat on '3 Minutes Happiness'."

Artist:	HAWTIN, RICHIE
Title:	DE9: Transitions
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD/DVD
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	MUTE 3087CD

"DE9: Transitions is Richie Hawtin's third release in his pioneering 'DE9' mix series, and is a CD + DVD 2 disc set. The CD contains a 75 minute stereo mix, while the DVD contains a 96 minute extended 5.1 Dolby surround sound mix, a 96 minute extended stereo mix, 2 music videos: 'We [All] Search' and 'The Tunnel' (done to excerpts from DE9: Transitions), a short film about DE9: Transitions, and footage from the Time Warp Festival in Germany from April of 2005. DE9: Transitions has been realised using the latest recording technology to create an immersive sonic experience: 95 minutes of altered perception. Hawtin has used Abelton Live and ProTools software to strip apart then reassemble his component tracks to make completely new pieces of music, combining multiple elements simultaneously into a constantly shifting collage of sound. Technique aside, DE9: Transitions is a powerful and compelling trip. DE9: Transitions combines everything from original Hawtin productions to unreleased tracks straight from the studios of cutting-edge producers like Ricardo Villalobos, and adds flashes of classic techno moments which inspired him when he was a young clubber. But most of the tracks are fundamentally transformed from their original states. In fact the tracks are so close to becoming entirely new compositions that Hawtin has made the decision to give them his own names."

Artist:	LIEBING/SPEEDY J, CHRIS
Title:	Collabs 3000: Metalism
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 3089CD

"Collabs 3000 is a full length album release from two of techno's most revered artists and DJs -- Speedy J and Chris Liebing. From brutal tough drums and more obvious dancefloor bound techno to more experimental and quirky meanderings, Collabs 3000 showcases two of the world's most recognized forces in techno hitting the top of their game. The Collabs series was established by longtime novamute artist Speedy J (aka Jochem Paap) in order to release a series of 12"s as collaborations with other artists. The first two saw a joining of forces with Adam Beyer and then Literon whilst the third and fourth 12"s witnessed Speedy hooking up with German DJ and producer, Chris Liebing."

Artist:	MOTOR
Title:	Klunk
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 3091CD

Worth mentioning again that these are not the Russian dudes who made Hexen. "Motor is totally uncompromised electronic music practicing a punk ethic, deliberately breaking any musical restrictions or sound barriers. After releasing a string of raw, bold and innovative singles, Klunk is Motor's debut full-length album. Packed with dark menacing grooves, corrosive industrial drumming and the lost, tripped out cranial bending atmosphere of a party that just didn't quite stop, Klunk joins the dots between Nitzer Ebb, Front 242, Final Cut, Plastikman, acid house and minimal techno creating a glorious dancefloor killing sound that is uniquely Motor."

Artist:	SUICIDE
Title:	Suicide
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	MUTE 9104CD

2000 double CD reissue of the astounding debut Suicide album (originally released by Red Star in 1978). Suicide were Alan Vega (voice) and Martin Rev (electronics). First disc features the original album; 2nd disc features the legendary 23 Minutes Over Brussels session (live at CBGB's, 5/25/78), which was originally issued as a flexi-disc. Packaged with a 1996 interview in the booklet between Rev, Vega & Red Star's Marty Thau. Classic punk-electronic trance that sounds as intense and vivid as ever and unlike some of their peers from the era, still as dangerously futuristic.

Artist:	SUICIDE
Title:	The Second Album + The First Rehearsals
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	2CD
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	MUTE 9105CD

2000 re-release (previously on Blast First UK). "The re-release of Suicide's second 1980 'pop' album, produced by Rick Ocasek. CD1 features the full album + extra tracks in the form of the A ("Dream Baby Dream" -- their biggest 'hit') & B ("Radiation") sides of the single of the time. CD2 is 45 minutes of previously unreleased tracks from their first rehearsals in 1975. The fourteen tracks show a surprisingly commercial bent, being mostly songs rather than being nascent versions of the material that appears on the first album. Suicide fans will have their first chance to see how the band evolved. Booklet features a lengthy interview and sports a wild new cover showing the boys in their 1972 street clothes."

Artist:	CABARET VOLTAIRE
Title:	Mix-Up
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9172CD

2002 edition of 1st Cabaret Voltaire album, originally released by Rough Trade in 1979. Cabaret Voltaire were Chris Watson, Stephen Mallinder & Richard H. Kirk. Classic proto-industrial/rock. "Impressively harnesses noise, primitive rhythm box percolations, tape loops, garbled vocals, and blasts of Farfisa. 'Kirlian Photograph' is an ugly slab of dub with frizzling snaps of white-heat buzz, clunky percussion, and a plodding bass line forming its skanking, roiling rhythm. Both the bass and incidental vocals are relegated to the back of the mix as the piercing detritus takes center stage. A cover of the Seeds' 'No Escape' evidences Cabaret Voltaire's paradox as a seemingly anti-rockist band who -- at their heart (for the first several years, at least) -- was a garage band." -- AMG.

Artist:	CABARET VOLTAIRE
Title:	Red Mecca
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9174CD

2002 edition of the 6th CV album, originally released in 1980. "It's a taught, dense, horrific slab lacking a lull. Dashes of Richard H. Kirk's synthesizer are welded to Chris Watson's tape effects for singed lashes of white noise, best heard on the lurching 'Sly Doubt' and the jolting 'Spread the Virus.' Throughout, Mallinder's sinister jibber jabbering punctuates the high-pitched menace. The record contains all the characteristics that have made the Sheffield group such an influential entity when it comes to electronic music." -- AMG.

Artist:	ADAMSON, BARRY
Title:	The King Of Nothing Hill
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9176CD

"Born and raised in Moss Side, Manchester, a love of cinematic scores and the punk explosion of The 1970s inexorably led Barry Adamson headlong into a career in music. He was bass player in the innovatory post punk band, Magazine between 1978 and1982, then went on to become a founding member of Nick Cave's illustrious Bad Seeds in 1984. The anguished songs and poignant instrumentals, all comprised of a miscellany of musical styles, are deftly blended together in Barry Adamson's hands on his new album, The King Of Nothing Hill, and the result is his own assiduously distinctive and deeply personal cinematic sound and his singular narrative gift."

Artist:	NON
Title:	Children Of The Black Sun
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD/DVD
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	MUTE 9183CD

"Special edition CD/DVD two disc set. The CD disc offers the album in stereo, and the DVD is recorded in 5.1 surround sound. First new Non album in over two years. Boyd Rice, a.k.a. Non, the most extreme artist in Mute's left-field canon, has been amazing and annoying his audiences in equal measures since he first began recording music in 1975. Along with former contemporaries Throbbing Gristle and Cabaret Voltaire, Non is synonymous with the genesis of extreme music. One thing is certain: until things gets darker, Non will be the man in black."

Artist:	SCHNEIDER TM
Title:	Zoomer
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9185CD

"Dirk Dresselhaus' aka Schneider TM, second full length album, Zoomer, harnesses a sublimely modern depth of musical vision to the hard won wisdom of life experience. A proper album developed over the course of three years, Zoomer is the sound of electronica, at last, with something to say. What about genuinely crafted songwriting? Check. Pop hooks? Check. Catchy vocal melodies? Check. Schneider TM brings a singer-songwriter sensibility for words and music to the ambitions of a sonic explorer."

Artist:	KOMPUTER
Title:	Market Led
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9186CD

"Market Led not only represents Komputer's first new album in nearly five years, it also marks a radical change in musical scope for the band. Where their debut album from 1997, The World of Tomorrow, quite obviously referenced Kraftwerk, Market Led sees Komputer leave their vocoders and drum machines by the road side, instead exploring a new, cerebral sonic territory. Although synthesizers are still prominent, Komputer have abandoned their synth-pop stylings, and on Market Led, they experiment with minimalist textures, clicks and whirs, and subdued, dub-like beats, which overall leads to a more discerning feel. Market Led is recommended for fans of To Roccoco Rot, Mouse On Mars, and Pan American."

Artist:	TARWATER
Title:	Dwellers On The Threshold
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9188CD

"The fourth album from Tarwater, Dwellers on the Threshold, can hardly be classified. Strangely graceful, this is how their sound patterns change between traditional instruments and modern electronica, between songs and tracks. Tarwater use their material unpretentiously and with economy. In the past year, during the recordings in their own studio in Berlin/Mitte, a slowly growing archive of songs was being created. Dwellers on the Threshold is the result. During this time, Tarwater worked together with other artists such as Norwegian Tone Avenstroup, Nicholas Addo-Nettey (part of the legendary 70s occupation of the Fela-Kuti band) and Stefan Schneider (Mapstation and To Rococo Rot). While working on their new tracks, Tarwater wrote music for films, theatre and auditions as well."

Artist:	SFT
Title:	Swift
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD/DVD
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	MUTE 9189CD

"Composer, film sound-tracker and partially reformed noise freak SFT (Simon Fisher Turner) is set to release a new CD and DVD, Swift. The release of Swift will be the first of its kind, as the CD comes packaged together with a DVD: a film by Adam Shepherd. Shepherd has collaged footage from six film makers, including SFT, to make a short film to accompany from the album. Featuring 20 tracks, produced by Kevin Paul and Simon Fisher Turner, Swift was recorded with London based Israeli jazz musician Gilad Atzmon and a array of diverse musicians and players: The Action Jackson Orchestra Perhaps, Asaf Sikris, occasional Medieval Babe Dorothy Carter and French electronic dance artiste Norsque. The sound palette was further enhanced by Spring Heel Jack's Ashley Wales, Japanese producer Aki Onda, video artist Doug Aitken (who appears in The Action Jackson Orchestra Perhaps), Australian electronic wizz Andie GK Reynolds and with spoken and sung passages from Karen Thiele and Tali Atzmon."

Artist:	CABARET VOLTAIRE
Title:	Best Of '78/'82 (The Original Sound of Sheffield)
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9190CD

"Cabaret Voltaire (along with Throbbing Gristle, Suicide, Chrome, and the like) were responsible for pioneering the acceptability and use of many sounds that were instrumental in defining a strand of popular music which became known as experimental or 'industrial'. Initially a three piece, Cabaret Voltaire began by playing around with recorded sounds manipulated by basic reel-to-reel recorders in Sheffield in 1973. Filtering influences as diverse as Stockhausen, Can, early Roxy Music, Velvet Underground and James Brown through various tape and electronic devices, their great blasts of noise were instrumental in freeing popular music from its narrow, restrictive definitions."

Artist:	SUICIDE
Title:	American Supreme
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9196CD

"Suicide are: Alan Vega, Martin Rev. In early 2001 they made a concentrated effort to record the new self-produced album American Supreme at New York's 6/8 Studios with engineer Perkin Barnes. The album, then almost complete, was then seriously delayed by 9/11, with Alan Vega living only a couple of blocks from the World Trade Center in the financial district of New York. The album carries the distinctive Suicide sound into the new millennium, driven by Marty Rev's alluring mix of digital electronic funk noise and skittish latin over-rhythms, intercut with haunting electro dance tracks, Vega's voice reaches new heights in expressing his paranoid, sci-fi visions of contemporary street life."

Artist:	ERASURE
Title:	Other People's Songs
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9198CD

"Erasure's new album features a selection of the duo's favorite covers, from artists as varied as Peter Gabriel, The Righteous Brothers, Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, & more. Erasure are not newcomers to the art of the cover version. They've included non-original material on several albums and famously released an entire EP of Abba songs, Abba-esque, in 1992. Other People's Songs is, however, a more weighty project, combining a bit of cheek with some iconoclasm, a sincere fascination with the mechanics of songwriting and a pure, fan-based love of pop."

Artist:	POLE
Title:	45/45
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD EP
Price:	$4.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9203CD

4 track EP. "Structurally, the music of Pole is based on abstract, irregular rhythms created by a defective analogue sound filter Betke uses, namely the 'Walderf 4-Pole' filter. These rhythms principally are defect frequencies lull of interference (in audio terms commonly referred to as 'noise' ), not unlike the crackling sounds of vintage vinyl, except for a harder, purely digital quality. Poles signature sound is also based on the production methods of Jamaican dub, and the foundations of modern composers like Steve Reich, Arnold Schoenberg, John Zorn, and Auto Lindsay."

Artist:	GOLDFRAPP
Title:	Black Cherry
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9206CD

"Goldfrapp return with their new album Black Cherry, following the worldwide success of their debut, Felt Mountain. Black Cherry was written and recorded over the last 12 months by the British duo of Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory. The magic of Goldfrapp's appeal is still potent and suggestive with the mystery, the sense of something below the surface, being just tantalizingly out of reach. With Black Cherry, they entwine classic songwriting with the most abstract of modern music, making a bold statement in an increasingly fractured world."

Artist:	CABARET VOLTAIRE
Title:	Methodology '74-'78 Attic Tapes
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	3CD BOX
Price:	$23.00
Catalog #:	MUTE 9211CD

"3 CD set from Cabaret Voltaire's most creative period. The CD box set charts the development of Cabaret Voltaire, starting from their early experimental period of '74/'75. The package contains recordings made during the same period as those featured on the CD, 1974-76, released on Industrial Records in 1978. The material contained in the box set sounds incredibly fresh when played alongside some of the new generation of 'laptop experimentalists', especially considering that the recording technology was quite basic compared to that available today. Initially a three piece, Richard H. Kirk, Stephen Mallinder and Chris Watson began by playing around with recorded sounds manipulated by basic reel-to-reel tape recorders in Sheffield in 1973. Way ahead of their time, these ideas cumulated in 1975, when the three staged their first performance of these sound experiments."

Artist:	POLE
Title:	90/90 EP
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD EP
Price:	$4.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9213CD

"With the 90/90 EP, part two in a new series of Pole releases, Stefan Betke has -- for the very first time -- allowed vocals to enter his minimal dub environment. On the title track 'Slow Motion', Ohio-based rapper Fat John precisely dissects the fabric of time, disregarding the familiar rules of hip hop showmanship. To an equally inescapable beat, aptly striking every second he turns time into a matter of politics and measurement into a question of definition. By thus laying open the backbone of his creative process. Betke forsakes the anonymity of most electronic musicians and chooses to collaborate with other artists instead. Besides double bass genius August Engkilde (already featured on 45/45). 'I Can't Hear's' minimal beat environment features saxophone passages by Copenhagen resident Thomas Haas."

Artist:	POLE
Title:	Pole
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9216CD

"With his new album and two EPs, Pole has gone back to the future, back to his own roots -- from hip hop to techno and back again. Similar to the blue-red-yellow albums, which only revealed its overall idea in the combination of all separate recordings, Betke has managed to create a series which continues to evolve with every installment. And this almost architectural approach is accompanied by a fundamental musical change of direction. Also, for the first time, a voice has been allowed to enter the mix, that of Ohio-based rapper Fat Jon. Direct, subtle, unforced and forceful Pole gains more and more transparency, with or without its vocal support -- no clicks, no scratches, no scrapes... nothing dilutes the strict clarity of his new output. Goodbye 'Walldorf 4-Pole', welcome Stefan Betke."

Artist:	CLIENT

"As the first signings to Andy Fletcher of Depeche Mode's Toast Hawaii label, Client's arrival on the music scene couldn't have been more timely. Poppy without being sanitized, danceable without being identikit. Client take the contemporary trend for all things electro to the next level by combining pulsing, machine-funk, analogue sounds with classic song writing -- imagine a sound jam between Kraftwerk, Joy Division and Dusty Springfield (with a northern accent) and you're half-way there."

Artist:	PINK GREASE
Title:	All Over You
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$7.00
Catalog #:	MUTE 9221CD

"Pink Grease was born out of a mutual appreciation of filthy parties, the necessity of rock, and the need for a massive injection of sex into the pop mainstream. Like a giant freak magnet Pink Grease came together out of frustration at a dead scene and the despicable inertia of bland live music. Their mission: to create super-powered, disco-driven punk (f) rock. All Over You was recorded at Russell 'Blues Explosion' Simins studio, Empire View, with Jason Buckle at the helm. New York affects the music, tightens it up so it flows with danger."

"WAT is Laibach's first new album in 7 years, since 1996's Jesus Christ Superstars. Laibach, who formed in their home country of Slovenia in 1980, have produced some of the most controversial, thought provoking, and dramatic art over the past 20 years. The band famously co-founded the NSK guerilla art collective which was declared a virtual State in Time, issuing its own passports and staging embassy and consulate events in many countries and they have, throughout their career, entertained, provoked and confused diverse audiences from Siberia to California."

Artist:	LIARS
Title:	They Were Wrong, So We Drowned
Label:	MUTE USA
Format:	CD
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	MUTE 9235CD

"The last band to so expertly execute the cocktail of menace and artful, brilliant chaos that Liars achieve for their second album, They Were Wrong, So We Drowned, were fellow New Yorkers Sonic Youth, when they cut their epochal Bad Moon Rising album. It's a record from a band in transition, severing their ties with the scene they kinda inaugurated and have now, decidedly, outgrown. A band defining themselves only in terms of what they wish to achieve, the limits of their imagination. A band withdrawing to a basement deep in the wilds somewhere and letting their every little wrinkle of rampant creativity and twisted genius seep deep into the shadows of this most poignant and chilling ghost story."
