According to Annie Clark, the collaboration between St. Vincent and David Byrne, “Love This Giant,” is an album “centered around a bass band.” I’m going to have myself a very selfish moment and hope that if any future collaborations are indeed involved, could they be more like the Talking Heads instead of a brass band? Don’t get me wrong. The two appear to be having a blast together, as seen on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” and the album can be challenging at times. It has taken a few listens, but I have started to feel the new release despite the lack of accessibility. Photo via: Andreas Laszlo Konrath and first video via the Audio Perv.
