[Mack_Again]

guys Annie is premiering new songs now, hurry!

 

[Mack_Again]

ok Los Ageless sounds bit better than New York

 

[cobl04]

YAYAYYAYAYAYAYaYyaya

 

[Joey788]

Wow Los Ageless is like a modern New Wave track filtered through St. Vincent's unique style. Everything that Arcade Fire tried to achieve on their latest album? St. Vincent just did it better in one song.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Her little interview videos she's been posting the last few days have been consistently hilarious. Bravo.

 

[gump]

So excited for this.

 

[iron yuppie]

Los Ageless. Fuckin' wow.

 

[cobl04]

Fuck. She's so good.

 

[gump]

Yeah, these songs are both incredible, and show her range as an artist. I'm feeling an AOTY...

 

[Mack_Again]

I was personally very impressed with her vocal in Los Ageless.

 

[cobl04]

Yeah, these songs are both incredible, and show her range as an artist. I'm feeling an AOTY...

Has two to top for me, but if the rest is in the vein of the first two singles, she'll shit it in.

 

[Joey788]

This song is ridiculous and I absolutely love it.

 

[LemonMelon]

Why isn't it Thursday night yet

 

[Mack_Again]

im not feeling for this song. it's good but.......doens't feel like a St. Vincent song

 

[corianderstem]

Whoot, got tickets for the January Seattle show.

 

[Mack_Again]

wow Japan got a bonus track which is basically, sort of like a remix of other song in the album. good, i guess

Thanks for the heads up. I was able to buy it from here:

St. Vincent / Masseduction - OTOTOY

 

[Mack_Again]

Spoiler

the Japanese bonus track is sort of like Masseduction remixed with particular sample repeated over and over

 

[gump]

AOTY. Yes.

I know it’s early. But this is so fucking good.

 

[LemonMelon]

It's good. At this point, I'm not hearing anything Strange Mercy or Actor good, but it's another quality album and I think maybe a step up over the self-titled. It's early.

 

[Mack_Again]

it was better than these 3 singles teased it to be, but i think this album is meh, imo

 

[PhilsFan]

Los Ageless may be the song of the year.

 

[iron yuppie]

I know it’s early. But this is so fucking good.

Yes.

I think maybe a step up over the self-titled.

Yes.

Los Ageless may be the song of the year.

It's among them, definitely.

The sequencing on this album is impeccable, and the future-funk stuff sounds a hell of a lot more natural than it did on the last one. This is a superb album.

 

[gump]

The first three notes of Savior sound so much like Let’s Get It On that it must be deliberate, right?

 

[PhilsFan]

Pills is so horrible that it's distracted me from listening to the rest of the album, but I'm still pretty sure it's really good. The ballads in particular have stood out in early listens.

 

[LemonMelon]

Pills has been really divisive. Personally, I love it and think it's one of the best tracks. The lyrics are a little heavy-handed but I love the song for its nice energetic pace, great earworm hook and THAT INSTRUMENTAL BREAKDOWN.

The album is growing on me significantly with subsequent listens, but I haven't really gotten into the second half as much yet. The first half is such a blast that by the time I get to the moodier half of the record, I'm not ready to come down yet. A bunch of tracks near the end don't feel as complete to me either.

 

[iron yuppie]

I didn't realize until just now that Masseduction (the song) name checks both The Black Saint & The Sinner Lady and The Boatman's Call. Impeccable taste from Ms. Clark.

 

[nielsgov]

Los Ageless may be the song of the year.

That song immediately jumped out to me.

I've never been the biggest St. Vincent fan but I've been enjoying Masseduction quite a bit so far.
