The quite magnificent Liars have unveiled sketchy details of their fifth studio album.

Called 'Sisterworld', the band launched a cryptic website yesterday announcing the album title and featuring beguiling videos with ambient sound clips.

The follow-up to the band's eponymous 2007 album 'Liars' is expected in early 2010.

The album was recorded in Los Angeles with Jon Brion andTom Biller. It's Liars' first record to be recorded entirely in America since 2004's 'They Were Wrong, So We Drowned'.
