The album comes with a bonus disc featuring 10 extra tracks taken from Washingtons previous Eps completing your Washington collection and a digital insert which includes an extra track, wallpaper and lots of Washington goodies. The eagerly anticipated debut album from Washington I BELIEVE YOU, LIAR. The album was recorded in the back yard shed in the home of co-conspirator and collaborator, John Castle's parents in Melbourne over a period of months this year. Inspired by childhood, mortality, dispassionate love and the unconscious, I BELIEVE YOU, LIAR was written during a time when Meg's life was in a stage of extreme flux and songwriting was a method of creating some structure, some tangibility within the shifting landscape. Meg explains, 'For me, this record is thematically focused on duality and the impossible co-existence of dichotomous ideas. There are no love songs on this



Perhaps now that Australian Megan Washington -- known simply by her surname -- has nabbed two 2010 Aria awards (think Grammy's Down Under) for Best Female Artist and Breakthrough Artist, we're thinking we might actually get an official U.S. release at some point in the new year. The planets alligned for the Melbourne-based 24-year-old singer/songwriter in 2010 with the Aussie release of her debut full-length I Believe You Liar in August, a brilliant and diverse album of art-pop magic. Starting with a handful of songs from three prior EP's released since 2008 and then adding in new songs to round out the track list, Liar careens easily from the darkly eclectic to bright and shiny jumbles of infectious hooks.

Washington's keen sense of wordplay, bordering at times on quirky, is balanced nicely by both a solid melodic foundation and a rambunctious, witty attitude. Self-described as "minimalist elegance", her songs are confident and assured, not the navel-gazing, mumbled musings of "deep" introspection but smartly conceived and playfully, skillfully executed productions that strut with panache. We're particularly fond of the 80's girl-group "I get shakin' when you shake it" sassy come on romp "Sundays Best" or Phil Spector-ish "Cement" as well as the staggered synth-keys rapture of "How to Tame Lions". The explosively dramatic title track, however, is what ultimately sealed the deal: a majestic, orchestrated ballad of epic dimension (in every sense of the word). Watch the award-winning video for "Sunday's Best" after the jump.
