Transcription

Background

Their multi-collaborative series (Eg) and Belong EP were material largely recorded weeks before the lockdowns as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. All three band members wrote and composed the album's tracks virtually, starting with what they had before the lockdown and expanding upon it.[1]

It expresses themes of insanity, powerlessness, self-doubt, and anxiety.[2] Lead singer Sam and keyboardist Casey Harris say the album was influenced by the radio shows they would listen to as children instead of TV because of Casey's blindness. Sam said "I wanted to make an album that felt as unhinged as I did, and as the whole world felt around me. So Adam [Levin], Casey and I carved ourselves a space where we could all be as ugly, weird, funny, and f'd up as we wanted to be."[3]

AllMusic[4]

The Beautiful Liar received generally positive reviews from critics. Matt Collar of AllMusic gave the album a 4 out of 5 stars and wrote that "The Beautiful Liar is a quirky, oddly intriguing experience, whose conceptual elements interrupt the corporate pop flow of the album". He praised the songs "My Own Monster", "Love Is Death", and "Reincarnated".[4] Johan Wippsson from Melodic called the album "a strong comeback from one of the best and most exciting bands in the pop genre right now", calling tracks "Somebody Who Knows You" and "Okay" favorites.[5]
