"lands somewhere between the controlled aggression of METZ and the free-for-all tumult of Girl Band."
FLOOD

"strobes a light into the more electronic elements of the Los Angeles quartet’s upcoming full-length debut"

American Songwriter

"Caustic and deliberately raw, their new single 'I Am Who I Think You Think I Am' is a real statement, a crunching manifesto."
Clash

"Strange and abrasive but with considerable emotional girth. The track contains the unbridled energy of Liily’s early shows and singles, but feels stripped of anything passive or unintentional."
Post-Punk

"An irresistible reintroduction and statement of purpose for the band, and a frenzied addition to their growing canon of killer tracks."
Under The Radar

"A different type of intensity apart from your typical hard rock song, a characteristic of Liily as a band that sets them apart from other conventional rock acts"
V13

“Liily is standing at the cusp of an electric guitar-led revolution and, indeed, one glimpse of Liily’s cacophonous mosh pit led live shows will lead to one to believe this may soon come true.”
OnestoWatch

“Angeleno quintet Liily are pushing the rock genre forward and into a new era of raw tension and passionate fire…”
Atwood Magazine

"A punchy bite and fresh-faced feeling"
DORK

"An EP that both appreciates the past and isn’t limited by preconceptions."
Uproxx

Almost two years later, and now all of 22 years old, the band returned with new music starting with “I Am Who I Think You Think I Am” on June 25th. Produced by Joe Chicarelli and mixed by Alan Moulder, a highly aggressive single, more strange and abrasive but also far more three dimensional than anything the band has done before. The new single, "Odds Are It’s Blue is about battling with the fear and indecision that comes with relinquishing all forms of control over one's life and learning to be comfortable with letting things be and transpire the way they’re supposed to", says Dylan Nash. 'Odds Are It's Blue' continues the momentum and still contains the unbridled energy of early shows and singles but feels stripped of anything passive or unintentional.  

LA-based rock group Liily burst back onto the scene with "I Am Who I Think You Think I Am", alongside a music video that reflects the manic energy and raucousness of their sound. The single is now available via Southern California indie label Flush Records. Clash premiered the track, praising it as "caustic and deliberately raw" and declaring it "a real statement, a crunching manifesto," and NME was quick to add it to their fantastic New Bangers Playlist. 

"I Am Who You Think I Am" has been added to three incredibly popular Spotify playlists, including New Noise (366k)All New Rock (277k), and Noisy (173k). Apple Music added it to five different playlists, including New Music DailyThe New RockNew in RockNew in AlternativeBreaking Hard Rock, and Rock Workout. Amazon Music added it to their Brand New Music playlist (top for new releases)Rock SceneFresh Rock (#3), and Breakthrough Indie (#13). Last but not least, Apple Music Shazam added it to The Best New Music, and the track was featured on BBC Radio 1's Indie Show With Jack Suanders. Needless to say, Liily's new single has been wildly successful!

Liily are four Los Angeles musicians-  Dylan Nash, Sam De La Torre, Charlie Anastasis & Maxx Morando - who, up until now, were mostly known for their manic and cacophonous live shows. Those performances, alongside a couple of early singles packaged together into an EP entitled I Can Fool Anybody In This Town, drove the band to some surprising early successes: performing at Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo, touring across Europe and the United States, then finding themselves on the cover of Spotify and Apple Music’s major rock playlists. But then, as quickly as they appeared, they seemed to vanish.

Liily will be performing at the Mercury Lounge in NYC and Troubador in West Hollywood this October. Tickets on sale today.
