St. Vincent's album's saving grace is that of the first half of the album opting for a more universally jammable sound before fitting into a dysfunctional experimental track towards the end that really only gives off broodiness, upset and somewhat lonely songwriting.

The album falls flat on it's face with Marlon Brandon, completely failing to use a slur in an artistic commentary way, thus coming out to show a certain era of ignorance. Not to slate the album completely, some songs have an aura of good vibes ... read more
