  "I knew of St. Vincent when this came out. Really liked her appearance on SNL. But I listened to this album for the first time after seeing her on the Grammy’s performing with Dua Lipa, doing the self-titled track to Masseduction. So I listed to both of those albums non-stop at that time. The self titled album being more of what I was use to and masseduction being more where I was heading musically was a really cool experience to jump between the two.

  The Self-Titled just really paints a wonderful picture of this dystopian tech hellscape where life is still happening. Even your guitar doesn’t sound like a guitar. And I really loved that about it. The instrument has so much more to offer. (Really liked Zach’s Jack white comment). It’s a great showcase of indie rock pushing the bounds and not being like everyone else. All the songs are different.

  My favorite line of many is from “regret”

  “I'm afraid of heaven because I can't stand the heights. I'm afraid of you because I can't be left behind” is such a relatable line about the death of, well, anything. Friendship or a loved one, or even of a society.

  Also, Rattlesnake fucks" - Nick
