St. Vincent – All Born Screaming
St. Vincent’s seventh studio album, All Born Screaming, released on April 26, 2024, via Total Pleasure Records and Virgin Music Group, presents a unique blend of “post-plague pop” self-produced by Annie Clark. Inspired by experimentation with drum machines, modular synths, and microdosing psychedelics, Clark crafted a sonic landscape reflecting her singular vision. Recorded across six studios in three cities, including her Compound Fracture studio in Los Angeles, the album embodies a diverse range of influences—from lounge and noise rock to baroque and electronica. Regarding the album’s title, Clark noted: “We’re all born in some ways against our will. But at the same time, if you’re born screaming, it’s a great sign—it’s a sign you’re alive. We’re all born in protest, so screaming is what it means to be alive.”
Standout Songs: Hell Is Near, Broken Man, Flea, Big Time Nothing, All Born Screaming
