Liar (The Jesus Lizard album)
1992 studio album by the Jesus Lizard
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Liar is the third studio album by American alternative rock band the Jesus Lizard, released in 1992 by Touch and Go Records. The album is considered to be among the band's best work: according to Mark Deming of AllMusic, "Liar isn't quite the wildest or weirdest album the Jesus Lizard ever made, but it may well be the strongest, and perhaps the best."[3] The artwork is "Allegory of Death" by painter Malcolm Bucknall, who also provided art for the album Down and the "Puss/Oh, the Guilt" split single with Nirvana.[4]
