LISTEN: St. Vincent - "Surgeon" (from Strange Mercy)
By
Quinn S.
St. Vincent (aka Annie Clark) will be releasing Strange Mercy, her third studio album, on September 13th. If you've been on Twitter recently, you've probably seen the hashtag #strangemercy, which apparently was tweeted in order to unlock a download of a track from the new album. Well, no need to tweet or hunt down the track as we've got a cut from the album below. Listen/download away.
MP3: St. Vincent - "Surgeon"
"Surgeon" finds Clark using a heavy dose of synthesizers, creating both a texture and mood that do well to complement her gentle inflection. And while the backbone of the song is primarily made up of soothing lines of synthesizer, Clark's guitar work calls upon jazz and funk. Once again, St. Vincent proves to be a true musical wonder, creating a sound that's magical, incredibly enchanting, and utterly profound.
