Young Liars is the first major release by the New York City band TV on the Radio. Released in 2003 on Touch & Go Records, the EP helped establish the band's distinctive blending of electronica, doo wop, post-rock, and avant-garde styles. The release featured the single "Staring at the Sun," which would later be remixed and reissued in their full-length album Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes. It ends with an unlisted fifth track which is an a cappella version of the Pixies song "Mr. Grieves" (originally on their 1989 album Doolittle).
"Mr. Grieves" – 4:10 (unlisted bonus track) ( Black Francis)
