Rundgren’s 2004 album joins electronic production to the melodic instincts of his seventies records
Coke bottle green double vinyl; 20th-anniversary Record Store Day 2024 edition
For fans of: Utopia, XTC, latter-day David Bowie
On Liars, Todd Rundgren turns questions about truth, belief and self-deception into an album that moves between electronic rhythms, layered vocals and soul-informed songwriting. “Sweet” and “Past” bring out his gentler melodic side, while “Mammon” and “Liar” push toward a more abrasive sound. The production looks forward even when the harmonies recall his earlier work.
Originally released in 2004, the album gives Rundgren’s studio experiments a sustained set of songs to work with. This twentieth-anniversary edition was released for Record Store Day in April 2024, with the fourteen-track program spread across two coke bottle green records.
