St Vincent on ‘Flea’
‘Flea’ showcases St Vincent’s vocals and instrumental prowess, with Dave Grohl on drums and Justin Meldal-Johnsen on bass. The song is a raw expression of desire, built on a foundation of thunderous grooves and intense guitar work. A lyric video featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the album sessions accompanies the release, revealing more of the album’s emotionally charged side. Following the success of the previously-released single, ‘Broken Man,’ which The New York Times praised for its “thrilling industrial sound,” ‘Flea’ continues to explore the album’s apocalyptic themes.
‘Flea’ delves into the theme of obsessive love, driven by the potent drumming of Dave Grohl. It features playful psychedelic elements that add a fun twist to the track’s rock foundation.
“All Born Screaming,” is St. Vincent’s first self-produced album and features contributions from a select group of friends including Rachel Eckroth, Josh Freese, Dave Grohl, Mark Guiliana, Cate Le Bon, Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Stella Mogzawa, and David Ralicke, the album promises to be a pure expression of St. Vincent’s unique artistic vision.
