I definitely prefer the first St. Vincent record to the second one.

Would y'all agree that each of her albums is better than the last? Because I think that's true, though I haven't listened to this one a whole lot so it might be better than Extraordinary Machine and I just don't know it.theplatypus wrote:By a lot.stip wrote:

No, I think the current album, while pretty good, is a sizable step back from Extraordinary Machines, which is easily her best.

And The Idler Wheel is a lot better than Extraordinary Machine to my ears, but still not as good as When the Pawn.

I agree with the order EM > When The Pawn > Tidal but I'm not sure if I like EM or Idler Wheel better. Idler Wheel is one of my favorite records of this decade.stip wrote:No, I think the current album, while pretty good, is a sizable step back from Extraordinary Machines, which is easily her best.

Idler Wheel is outstanding. Extraordinary Machine is good but a little safe and middle-of-the-road.

Actually, I might like Idler Wheel even more than When the Pawn.

Agreed. I'm gonna go back and listen to When the Pawn again.theplatypus wrote:Idler Wheel is outstanding. Extraordinary Machine is good but a little safe and middle-of-the-road.

Idler Wheel is so fucking good.

Also, the second Ramones album is an improvement on the first.

That run from Werewolf through to the end is so so good.

Maybe I liked the theatricality on EM a bit more. Every Single Night is outstanding, and Anything We Want - Hot Knife is a cool run, but the rest of that record didn't particularly excite me.
I think When The Pawn is the most consistently good of the four records, since EM falls off a bit int he back half. But the first half of EM is the highlight of her catalog for me.
