Liquid Liquid is an American no wave and dance-punk group, originally active from 1980 to 1983, consisting of Dennis Young, Richard McGuire, Salvatore Principato and Scott Hartley. They are best known for their track "Cavern," which was covered—without proper permission or attribution—by the Sugar Hill Records house band as the backing track for Melle Mel's old school rap classic "White Lines (Don't Don’t Do It)."The group released a series of extended plays, including the acclaimed 1983 12" EP Optimo. In 2008, the band reformed and have played in multiple countries.
