Temperature dependent high resolution photoemission spectra of quasi-one-dimensional Li{sub 0.9}Mo{sub 6}O{sub 17} evince a strong renormalization of its Luttinger-liquid density-of-states anomalous exponent. We trace this new effect to interacting charge neutral critical modes that emerge naturally from the two-band nature of the material. Li{sub 0.9}Mo{sub 6}O{sub 17} is shown thereby to be a paradigm material that is capable of revealing new Luttinger physics.
