Yup, Cris K. is out of jail & sober (enough to go on tour anyway.)

Wonder what ever happened to Derrick -- he used to be the webmaster of their site during the hiatus years, wrote the liner notes for the Ryko reissues, etc.

I will certainly give Liars more listens . . . at the moment my impression is the first half is packed with "hits", the second half mostly 2 minute filler songs. I think the ballad that ends this album suffers by comparison to "Other side of Mt. H" -- too similar, but not as good.

I'd have to say "Drowned" and "Drum" are probably two of my three favorite records of the century so far! (Scott Walker is the third.)

Was listening to "Drowned" the other day, and realised that other than drums and voice I can't even tell what "instruments" they're using! (Or is it all samplers and stuff?!?) Fantastic zoundz! And I dig it all the more cuz critics h-a-t-e-d it so much when it came out. Cretins!
