Description

liar, flower ‘geiger counter’ (katiejane garside)

“i found her one day in a notebook, she spoke of a new chapter and the dropping away of tenure 

she likes to make noise

this record was conceived and collected through a year of submersive meditation, trance and improvisation, insisted by my bird bones insisting, i went down deep into the soil, set alight corrupt files and malware, something needed routing out taking me ever deeper

the words are too big, they vanquish, swallow up, this is why 

i use so many words to say ‘i will not speak’

here is an offering of music as we skate the frozen lake of unknowing…the sun and the wild wind

alien fingers typing alien phone

i love you bright heart, i love you”

Liar, Flower is the alter ego of Ruby Throat, consisting of artists KatieJane Garside (Daisy Chainsaw, QueenAdreena, Lalleshwari) and Chris Whittingham. In 1991 with Daisy Chainsaw, KatieJane Garside emerged as a furious icon of the alt-girl underworld in a torn dress and matted hair howling ‘Love Your Money’ a confused and violent mixture of lust and loathing. Afterward came QueenAdreena who were bolder, darker, louder, unpredictable, and violent. Courtney Love proclaimed her as one of the three instigators of the “Riot Grrrl” scene, along with Courtney (of course) and Babes in Toyland’s Kat Bjelland.  Katie has since gone on to inspire and enthuse a new generation of artists all the while keeping her mysterious and creative integrity intact, a true artist in every sense.
