Today's Quick Mention: Album stream
time! You can find Reptar's Body Faucet
over at
Youtube,
Sucker's Candy Salad is settled in at
Noisey,
and Ramona Falls' Prophet is waiting for you
at
Stereogum.
All three of those are worth any time you'll give
them.
Naturally, one of the main things I wanted to grab
at Record Store Day was a 7" from the always
fantastic St. Vincent. I really think Annie
Clark is one of the best artists around right now,
and anything new from her is a must have item.
Hear the a-side of the 7", which took me until about
yesterday to really appreciate, just below.
Enjoy.
:St.
Vincent - Krokodil: I think my brain just totally shutdown during the first
few times that I listened to this. I'm rather used to
Annie sounding like she could heal the Earth, and this is a
rapid succession of jabs to the ear. Will you like it?
I think so. Just know that there are no punches pulled
at any point. This is St. Vincent sizing you up and
seeing if you're willing to get a little crazy.
