The energy is unmatchable. Guitars crushing
as they cry to you. Drums pounding grooves that touch and move. Tears falling from the vocalist as he spits out words of love,
hate, truth, lies, passion and hope. Sweat pours from every face and burns the eyes. Blood breaks through the calloused fingertips
and stains the strings. Never has there been a band that performs with such raw emotion, with such pain and joy. This band
is Smilin Liar. Letting go of the narcissistic intentions that most bands set their minds on, Smilin Liar concentrates on
only two things: the music and the live show. The band does not look at performing as a ways of acquiring adoration but instead
they use it as a way to open a part of themselves and share that with the world. But capturing the sheer energy that Smilin
Liar delivers is no easy task. It was when Chad Hanks of American Head Charge took over the production role that everthing
came together. Smilin Liar's new album, "Loaded Language", is eleven tracks of brutal honesty. Smilin Liar holds nothing back
on this album and pours every one of their best performances into it. Loaded Language is here.
