Released in 2011, it sharpened the left-field art-rock instincts of her earlier records into something more emotionally exposed, with Clark's guitar work veering from delicate fingerpicking to jarring, distorted outbursts within the same breath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSt. Vincent, the nom-de-stage of Annie Clark, releases her second album for 4AD, STRANGE MERCY. The record's 11 tracks showcase Clark's gift for fusing the cerebral and the visceral, her melodically elegant arrangements packing hefty emotional punches. Clark reunited with producer John Congleton and recorded the album in her hometown of Dallas, TX. STRANGE MERCY finds St. Vincent redefining the idea of the guitar hero, utilizing the instrument as a pointillist artist might wield a brush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_START --\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Chloe In The Afternoon\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Cruel\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Cheerleader\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4. Surgeon\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5. Northern Lights\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Strange Mercy\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Neutered Fruit\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Champagne Year\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4. Dilettante\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5. Hysterical Strength\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6. Year Of The Tiger\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_END --\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 652637312317\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4ad\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.13.11\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e LP Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- discogs-import --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"discogs-import\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetails\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4AD (CAD 3123)  ·  \u003cstrong\u003eReleased:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2011  ·  \u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e US\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA1 Chloe In The Afternoon – 2:55\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA2 Cruel – 3:35\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA3 Cheerleader – 3:28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA4 Surgeon – 4:25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA5 Northern Lights – 3:33\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB1 Strange Mercy – 4:28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB2 Neutered Fruit – 4:13\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB3 Champagne Year – 3:28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB4 Dilettante – 4:03\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB5 Hysterical Strength – 3:16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB6 Year Of The Tiger – 3:28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCredits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaniel Hart – Arranged By (Additional String Arrangement)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohn Congleton – Drum Programming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMcKenzie Smith – Drums (Drum Kit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhil Palazzolo – Engineer (Additional Woodwind Engineering)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrian LeBarton – Keyboards (Additional Keyboards)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRay Janos – Lacquer Cut By\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLever And Beam, LLC – Management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohn Congleton – Producer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvan Smith (2) – Saxophone, Clarinet, Flute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnnie Clark – Songwriter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharon Clark (2) – Songwriter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBobby Sparks – Synthesizer (Minimoog), Synthesizer (ARP), Clavinet, Electric Piano (Wurlitzer)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaniel Hart – Violin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnnie Clark – Vocals, Guitar, Keyboards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"relix.shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54547784368446,"sku":"410959","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4609\/5166\/files\/12633308987710-transparent-v2.png?v=1791445573","url":"https:\/\/reserveselects.myshopify.com\/products\/st-vincent-strange-mercy-lp-vinyl","provider":"Reserve Selects","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
