St. Vincent has revealed the first song from her forthcoming third album, Strange Mercy, released on 12/13th September.
Earlier this week, fans were invited to tweet the hashtag "#strangemercy" in order to unlock access to the track 'Surgeon' from her new album microsite www.strangemercy.com. In addition four specially made film vignettes created by Alan Ortiz served as virtual milestones in the build-up to the final reveal.
Today, 'Surgeon' was unveiled and the song can be downloaded as a free MP3 from www.strangemercy.com and / or from the player below. Beginning with languorous vocals, Surgeon spirals into a frenzy of frantic guitars as Clark repeatedly pleads, "Best finest surgeon, come cut me open."
In October, St. Vincent will begin an extensive US tour in support of Strange Mercy. All dates are below.
