I've been eagerly anticipating Beck's Record Club's (Beck/St. Vincent/Liars/Os Mutantes) cover of INXS' Never Tear Us Apart . The boys make it classy, and as she should, as she is likely the best to properly express the emotion of the song, Annie Clark takes lead vocal duties...

It's a good thing I like this guy otherwise I'd probably get tired of posting these.  Actually, if I didn't like him I wouldn't post ANY of these, so now I've just wasted time by typing out my thoughts to myself instead of deleting them.  Meh. This week he's a little ahead of his usual 10-12 day schedule, bringing us "Never Tear Us Apart" fronted by St. Vincent's Annie Clark.  Previous offerings in his quest to cover every song from INXS highly acclaimed album "Kick" have been " Wild Life ", " Loved One ",  " Mediate ", [...]

Yup, here's another one.  I make it sound really boring, but they're actually frickin awesome. Last time around Beck (for some reason) made the video private, then made it public again, so if you try to watch this and it's private, just give a little bit and it might be public. Again. Have a deek at the previous covers: " Loved One ",  " Mediate ", " Need You Tonight ", " Devil Inside ", and " New Sensation" and "Guns In The Sky " [...]

I think I keep saying the same thing, that even though these Record Club sessions are awesome, there's not a whole lot I can say about them that I haven't already said. Watch their previous covers of " Mediate ", " Need You Tonight ", " Devil Inside ", and " New Sensation" and "Guns In The Sky " [...]

Ok so I'm running out of things to say about Beck's fourth Record Club series.  So I'll just say this; he spent the better part of a day covering INXS's "Kick" album with St. Vincent, Liars and a slew of others and it's damn damn good. Previously he's done " New Sensation " , " Guns In The Sky ", " Devil Inside ", and " Need You Tonight ", and this week it's "Mediate". [...]

Link: http://vimeo.com/10995672 For some reason, Beck invited a bunch of people to chill in a studio and record a bunch of INXS covers. They also hired bros with HD Cameras to film it, and make sure it looked like an authentic jam sesh. St. Vincent a.k.a. Annie Clark was one of ppl who was invited, and a bunch of people covered INXS's hit anthem "Need You Tonight." It seems like she had never really heard the song before, but then tried to apply the [...]

As mentioned last week and previous weeks, Beck's fourth installment of his record club series, in which he gets a bunch of famous musicians together and they record their own version of a famous album, sees Beck himself joined by St. Vincent, Liars and more covering "Kick" by INXS. Previous weeks have seen him release " New Sensation " , " Guns In The Sky ", and " Devil Inside ".  This week we have "Need You Tonight".

In Beck's fourth installed of his record club series (where he and established acts record cover versions of some of music's most poignant albums) he's team up with St. Vincent, Liars and many more. Last week he posted the video for "New Sensation" , and this week he's posted the third track from the album "Kick" by INXS; "Devil Inside". [...]

This is the second song from "Kick", a collaborative cover record of "Kick" by INXS, covered in no small part by Beck, St. Vincent, Liars and more. Check out the video for "New Sensation" below as well as their first cover of "Guns In The Sky", and stay tuned for more videos comprising the entire album. [...]

INXS's 1987 album "Kick". It is their best-selling album, which sold more than 10 million copies in the U.S. alone and spawned four top 10 singles. Here's what Beck had to say about this choice for their 4th entry in the club: Joining in this time we had three of my favorite bands — Liars, Annie Clark and Daniel Hart [...]

Filed under: News , New Music Beck has revealed that the next installment of his Record Club will focus on the mega-popular 1987 INXS album 'Kick'. It's an unexpected but not unwelcome choice after recent stabs at underappreciated classics by the Velvet Underground , Skip Spence and Leonard Cohen . "Record Club No. 4 is here," Beck announced on his official site. "Joining in this time we had three of my favorite bands -- [...]

Lairs, St. Vincent, and Os Mutantes cover INXS “Guns In The Sky” This is amazing!

David Byrne reported from his blog this week , that he is currently doing some writing with St. Vincent's Annie Clark . Byrne sat in with Clark at her January 29th show at the Allen Room in New York, where the pair performed a song they had previously worked up. But Byrne now reports that there are "eight or so" songs currently in some stage of collaborative development. Due to Clark's current touring commitments, [...]

If an Imelda Marcos concept album with Fatboy Slim isn't eclectic enough for you, David Byrne is joining up with Annie Clark for a collaboration which features a brass ensemble, has no timetable for completion, and is at about eight songs so far. Byrne has a way of showing up everywhere these days, but still, this feels like a rather natural pairing. Byrne and Clark perform "Breathing" below: - While we're on the topic of Byrne, you might do well to check out his [...]

Though David Byrne’s online journal often takes on daunting subjects, such as Czech Republic steel foundry/coal mine complexes , “The Kindle Experience,” Bono , and the “Internet Antichrist,” that doesn’t mean he’s short on words about music. In fact, his latest entry consists of over 2,000 words discussing his ongoing collaboration with St. Vincent, past work with Brian Eno, how the suggestion that he would “collaborate for a bag of Doritos” isn’t too far off, and more. (A few photos of his recording studio are also included, which bear a striking resemblance [...]

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News St. Vincent , aka Annie Clark , generates whimsical pop music, but apparently she's also a hip-hop fan. Thursday night at the Metro in Chicago, Clark took a break from her cinematic set to pontificate on one of her favorite songs, 'It Was a Good Day' by Ice Cube before segueing into a cover of Jackson Browne 's 'These Days.' The two disparate songs didn't seem mutually exclusive, but after she humorously described the litany [...]

Last semester I had the honor to attend a St. Vincent concert, and let me tell you, Annie Clark is just, well, just dandy. So, while jumping back on the bandwagon, I bring you St. Vincent playing "Laughing with a Mouth of Blood." .bishop.

St. Vincent - Laughing With a Mouth of Blood What happens when you combine St. Vincent with Carrie Brownstein? Wonderful things .
