Critic Steve Huey describes their music as "uncompromising, intense, cathartic fusions of funk, post-punk, noise, and jazz experimentalism, with Rollins shouting angry, biting self-examinations and accusations over the grind." In 2000, Rollins Band was included on VH1's ''100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock'', ranking at No. 47. History Precursors (1980–1986) Rollins was the singer for the Washington, D.C. punk rock band State of Alert from October 1980 to July 1981.

Liar (Rollins Band Song)
"Liar" is a song by Rollins Band and the lead single from their fourth album, ''Weight'', released in 1994. It was the album's only charting single and is one of the group's best known songs. Background In 2011, Rollins reported that "Liar" began during one of the first practice jam sessions with bassist Melvin Gibbs who joined in 1993, replacing Andrew Weiss. "Liar" was a loose, humorous improvisation performed at live concerts until executives at Imago Records suggested the song had the potential to be a hit single. Rollins thought the song was a b-side that would not even be featured on ''Weight''. However, when the record label heard it they immediately proposed it be the lead single. Both a short edit (4:19) and a longer "video edit" (4:49) were distributed as CD singles in various territories, often with one or more unreleased tracks from the ''Weight'' sessions added; these and other outtakes were included in the 2004 release ''Weighting''. The video edit of "Liar" w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
