With 2021's The Beautiful Liar, New York's X Ambassadors offer a wry concept
album rife with emotive pop hooks that also makes room for thoughtful, often
theatrical ruminations on war, and the troubling way political and economic
power brokers command our daily lives with money, fearmongering, and
untruths. It's a bold production, framed by an audio-book conceit where a
narrator is reading you the -- completely made-up  novel "The Beautiful
Liar" by author Irving P. Neville. There's even a mid-album sponsor break
that reinforces many of the underlying themes of the album. While none of the
songs tie directly into the audio-book, the thematic ideas all work in
tandem, reinforcing the growing darkness and unease that permeates ever more
as the album progresses. Also adding to the surreality of the production are
a handful of giddy novelty cuts, including a 56-second "Conversations with my
Friends" that sounds something like Hunter S. Thompson reading an anti-war
poem with Bad Brains. There's also the bemusing protest song-meets-1930s
Broadway number "Theater of War" in which singer Sam Harris does his best
Jimmy Durante impression. Conceptual conceits aside, there are some great
songs here, and tracks like "My Own Monster," "Love Is Death," and
"Reincarnation" find X Ambassadors further expanding their infectious blend
of gothy R&B, electronica, and hip-hop-influenced stadium rock. That many of
these songs also find them exploring some of the bigger, more troubling
issues in society, lends the album a weight that nicely counterbalances the
Disney theme park insanity of the audio-book elements. The Beautiful Liar is
a quirky, oddly intriguing experience, whose conceptual elements interrupt
the corporate pop flow of the album, and one imagines X Ambassadors wouldn't
have it any other way.
