Futurism Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 Touring in October with a couple of dates in the UK. http://ilovestvincent.com/ FUTUREFEAR is the presale code if anyone is interested in going. I've seen her a couple of times, including near the front at the Park Stage in 2014 and she is very entertaining live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yokel Again Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 From what I've heard of the new album - sounds bloody brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been doing the same. I’d not rated the new singles but revisiting her discog has me convinced they’ll be great in the context of what will be another tremendous record.

FloorFiller Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Holy shit this album is incredible. I think New York totally threw me off of being really stoked for this but only one listen through and I'm totally digging it. Pretty tempted by those tour dates next week now!

Amy Lawn Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Downloading the album now, can't wait to get stuck in. I've absolutely loved everything she's done so far, she's definitely one of the standouts of her generation. I've said that New York is a top tune from the beginning, she's one of the best songwriters going even without the guitar, and she's got one of the most eclectic and diverse musical palettes around so even if she does want to go pop she's going to do it better than 99.9% of other artists in the game. Very pissed off I can't go to her Manchester show next week though, I've seen her live 5 times now and I can never get bored of her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose-Colored Boy Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 (edited) Golly gosh, this gal. Savior and Young Lover in particular are just sublime. Edited October 13, 2017 by Zac Quinn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Pleased with it. I think it's a bit spotty until Los Ageless has rounded off but after that it's pretty sublime - okay, NY is still what it is but it sounds much more palatable nestled in between great tracks. Definitely hasn't lost her weird side and if anything is steering into it, which allays the biggest worries I had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rose-Colored Boy Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 On the one hand, it's no coincidence that the half of the record which Mr Antonoff didn't write is far better. On the other hand he did still produce the second half, so perhaps LWYMMD and Melodrama were more the fault of Taylor and Ella than I wanted to believe.

the wonderwhy Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 No support at these gigs- she's screening her directorial debut 'The Birthday Party' about an hour before she's on stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wonderwhy Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 Intrigued by this now. She's got no band with her & appears to be doing a set of what I suppose you'd call hits followed by the new album. Twitter seems to think it was either very much a hit or very much a miss.

I could definitely believe that. It seems poised between narcissism and brilliance, but it's good that someone's taking those risks I guess. Carving up the set into chronological hits and then the album in full is pretty vulgar tho, definitely don't like that. However I suppose this is a whistle-stop album launch tour though and that'll be gone by the time she's next back.

TomViolence Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Thoughts on last night: It just didn't really feel like a St. Vincent gig - lack of crowd interaction, no band and all a bit too flat. The chronological setlist didn't help the atmosphere and the fact that some of the old songs had been reworked and were unrecognisable didn't either. Actor, Birth In Reverse and Cheerleader were huge though. New songs all sounded great and didn't seem to suffer from not having a live band as much (I had nothing to compare against, I guess). Enjoyable enough overall - just nowhere near the heights of her previous gigs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Been umming and ahhing over tonight's show but glad I decided to give it a miss. Could probably do with saving the money, especially if it's not a proper St Vincent show (even though hearing the album in full would've been ace). Guessing she'll be all over the festival circuit next year so will hopefully catch her then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willutalk Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Goodness gracious MASSEDUCTION is absolutely brilliant. A proper album to dig into ( @FloorFiller sorry to steal your digging idea). A true modern artist, with some of the most fresh, innovative sounds out there. Can see my self definitely becoming more familiar with her music. Interesting to read an article comparing her to this decade's Prince. https://www.spectator.co.uk/2017/10/st-vincent-may-be-this-decades-prince/ Los Ageless is a classic, great to hear the full production, after hearing cut back versions on Jools Holland and Lauren BB6 Music. But it's an album of very little weak parts. All tracks seem to have something different to offer. Hang on Me, Fear of the Future, Young Lovers and Smoking Section are greats at first listen. Shame that the Brixton gig was a bit hit or miss. To be fair good artists are ones willing to take risks with live shows. Too many artists do the predictable at the moment without having the guts to do something genuinely interesting. just a question where about's do we reckon she'd be placed if she played 2019? Must be Other sub or Pyramid 3/4 down, she subbed Park in 2014, and can see her popularity by 2019 will be substantially more to push her to a similar slot on bigger stages than The Park. Mind you she'd need a full band, but could be seriously good act indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Lawn Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 First Manchester gig she's done that I've had to miss, and she played The Strangers. Not seen her do it in years, the pain hurts me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBurns Posted October 21, 2017 Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 Fantastic gig tonight, I was apprehensive from reading reports online but she totally owned the stage by herself, phenomenal stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
