St. Vincent

This is the video for St. Vincent's "Laughing with a Mouth of Blood."

I discovered this solo female singer watching the Austin City Limits' coverage on PBS (if I wasn't a nerd before that sentence, I am now). She dropped out of Berklee School of Music in her third year to hitch up with Polyphonic Spree. This album "Actor" is so hipster you should really be listening to this on vinyl (psshhh), but the video is fairly strange and (I think) hilariously self-mocking. In fact, Fred Armisen has labeled himself somewhat of an indie-music comic, and often makes cameos in these artsy-fartsy vide0s.
