The Armed have dropped a new single and video for “Liar 2” from their forthcoming album Perfect Saviors, available August 25th. Tony Wolski, the vocalist of the band noted, “We tend to be drawn to juxtaposition and trying to make disparate things fit in new ways to discover some novel aesthetic resonance or emotional response. Some push and pull. This is a dancey, happy track about being in the deepest pits of despair and giving way to lies and delusion as your only means of survival. It is a chocolate cake full of broken glass—the sonics of the track itself, seemingly in denial of the lyrical content.”

Providing a full accounting of album contributors for the first time, Perfect Saviors was produced by the band’s Tony Wolski along with Ben Chisholm and Troy Van Leeuwen, with contributions from Julien Baker, Sarah Tudzin, Matt Sweeney, Mark Guiliana, Patrick Shiroishi, Justin Meldal-Johnsen and many more.

The album concludes a trilogy of albums examining and dissecting what constitutes “pop culture” in a world of limitless information and access. Perfect Saviors is the ultimate product of this evolution.
