I do give 'em credit, that's why I listen to every release. I mean, I've at least mildly enjoyed them from day one, I heard Trench when it first came out, but I found the ep's after that (the Fins EP and that one I can';t remember the name of and the Oneida split) to be straight-up terrible, some of the worst shit I've ever heard.
Since then, their output has ranged from very spotty to pretty damn good. I respect what they're doing, but they still don't strike me as anything special. However, I do agree with your assessment, they probably don't want to be known as songwriters.
You know what their second album reminds me of in places? The Sightings album "Arrived in Gold". They sound pretty sonically similiar.
But yeah anyway I'm not trying to change the subject, I appreciate and find Liars entertaining, just not particularly exciting.
