The Armed have given fans another great taste of what to expect from their upcoming album Perfect Saviors.
Due out on August 25 via Sargent House, the new record follows 2021’s ULTRAPOP and will include previous singles Sport Of Form and Everything’s Glitter, as well as the newly-released Liar 2 (watch the video below).
Says frontman Tony Wolski of the track: “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.”
