Described as “song about hypocrisy and breaking the cycle,” “Liar” is a consuming new track from bubb that excels in its introspective rock production — stirring in both crunchy guitar distortion and dreamy piano-set illumination.
The Georgia-based singer-songwriter builds into a particularly captivating “what a liar” sequence, where solemn acoustics culminate into the “I’m a liar” rock invigoration. Fight-or-flight responses and leech-like societal obstacles are referenced artfully, continuing the one-in-tumult sense as the impassioned vocals ascend into a screaming ferocity — exuding a ’90s alt-rock nostalgia, and lovably so. “Liar” is a thorough success from bubb.
