Angus Andrew’s experimental rock project Liars have announced a new album called Titles With the Word Fountain. It follows last year’s TFCF (Liars' first album without member Aaron Hemphill) and this year’s score to the film 1/1. The album was recorded during the same session as TFCF and uses similar album art, with the same image of Andrew dressed as a bride multiplied.

Titles With the Word Fountain is out digitally and on cassette Sept. 21 through Mute. Listen to the album’s first single “Murdrum” and watch a 2014 KEXP in-studio with Liars below.
