Former Talking Head's Leader, David Byrne + St. Vincent! Explosive Brass! Brainy, Wild, Passionate!
David Byrne, former leader of Talking Heads, & St. Vincent, former member of The Polyphonic Spree, have released their album, Love This Giant. Recorded over two years, largely at Water Music in Hoboken, NJ, the album is a collaboration in the truest sense of the word, with Byrne and St. Vincent (aka Annie Clark) co-writing ten of the album’s twelve tracks, and each artist penning one song individually. The album centers around an explosive brass band and is propelled by John Congleton’s drum programming. “There was no delineating what the roles were,” explains Clark of the recording. “It’s a collaboration I’m truly proud of.”The record favors idiosyncratic horn arrangements over traditional guitar/drum/bass lineup while maintaining a hook-laden rock sound.
