Liars are never one to ease into their cozy, studio armchairs and turn out predictable fodder. Quite the opposite. Their music has always teetered on the edge, and has been closely allied with their obscure visuals and home-brewed videos., like the series they self-released to coincide with their latest album, WIXIW. To help celebrate the Met’s spring costume exhibition PUNK: Chaos to Couture, on view May 9–August 11, 2013, and in conjunction with Wordless Music, Liars will perform a site-specific, multimedia show in the high and mighty Temple of Dendur at the Metropolitan Museum on Saturday, May 18th.
