LIES is the brand new project from emo's very own Mike and Nate Kinsella. This is the latest endeavour to add to the laundry list of Kinsella projects, which include Joan of Arc and American Football together, and Cap'n Jazz, Owen, Owls, Make Believe and Birthmark separately, just to name a few. They just released their debut EP through Polyvinyl. It collects the singles the band had released up until this point, in addition to the title track. Sonically, the bright, delicate guitar work and melancholic vocals we've come to love from their work is still present, but its surrounded by an atmospheric swirling of strings and electronics, giving these songs a gorgeous lush and gloss to them. On top of that, they expand their instrumental palette, incorporating things like saxophone solos. Its a departure from what we've heard from them before, but a very welcome and matured one. Enjoy.
