Delaire The Liar announce new EP ‘Self Defence’
DELAIRE THE LIAR have announced a new EP!
Titled Self Defence, the upcoming EP from the London-based alternative band is the follow-up to 2021’s Eat Your Own, and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via Rude Records.
Speaking about the upcoming EP, the band says, “in the throes of desperation, there’s no telling the lengths a person will go to preserve themselves or their loved ones. This EP presents a series of fictional scenarios to challenge the typical understanding of self defence. The usual themes surrounding the topic are present; antagonism, violence, action and reaction, but with a focus on the more drastic instances that require a less reflexive and more considered approach. Instances that require a deeper understanding of the self, emotional capacity for pain, physical capacity for punishment, moral detachment and sacrifice for the benefit of yourself or someone else. This EP explores whether there is any defence too drastic or too difficult to justify when love, pride and responsibility is involved.”
Alongside the announcement of the new EP, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming EP; Angel Number. The new song is the second single to be released from the upcoming EP, following on from Bite Trap, which was released back in May.
Speaking about the new song, the band says, “the pain carried from past relationships, the boundaries and hard lines we draw to protect ourselves from vulnerability can create a new potential. A potential of rationalising actions we would have otherwise never thought ourselves capable of. Cold, calculated, isolating, radical and dangerous behaviours that leave you ultimately, alone.”
