Young Liars
2003 EP by TV on the Radio
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Young Liars is the first major release by the New York City band TV on the Radio. Released in 2003 on Touch & Go Records, the EP helped establish the band's distinctive blending of electronica, doo wop, post-rock, and avant-garde styles. The release featured the single "Staring at the Sun," which would later be remixed and reissued in their full-length album Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes. It ends with an unlisted fifth track which is an a cappella version of the Pixies song "Mr. Grieves" (originally on their 1989 album Doolittle).
