Album Reviews

Todd Rundgren once wrote, "Anything worth doing is worth overdoing." He hasn't changed his mind. Liars is fourteen songs about nothing less than the death of truth -- the worldwide industry in personal betrayal and institutional deception scored and sung with thrilling eccentricity: rave-tastic electronics; cool, candied swoon; metallic outrage. Still in full possession of his boyish, white R&B pipes at fifty-five, Rundgren has the brass to speak to and for the Lord Himself in "God Said." The digital slap and ring of Rundgren's orchestrations take some getting used to, but there is no denying the higher power -- the barbed but stubbornly idealistic humanity -- in his pure pop.
