Love This Giant (2022 Reissue)
2012 saw David Byrne and St. Vincent collaborate on the “off-the-hook brilliant” (NME) 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.
Having been out of print for a while, ‘Love This Giant’ is being made available again on CD. In an effort to reduce the plastic used, this new version comes housed in a card wallet sleeve with an accompanying booklet, seeing the heavy PVC cover from the original dispensed with.
