Look I dig Liars alot and I'll happily admit that, they're the only contempary act on this program I don't think are shit (accept Black Dice, who I like but aren't overly familiar with), and also if you ARE GOING to try to tediously link modern bands back to the No Wave scene then Liars are a somewhat more understandable choice then the Yeah Yeah Fucking Yeahs. But the whole idea of No Wave was this is was self-destructive, self-imploding reductionist music that when it ended, it properly burnt out and dissapeared, it's seems to contradict the No Wave attitude (or lack of, being a nihilistic scene) that anything could musically evolove from it.
