Eugene S. - 24/Feb/2025  The second studio album by musician St. Vincent, released by 4AD on May 4, 2009. The album received wide critical acclaim. In the 2009 Pazz & Jop albums survey, Actor ranked twelfth, and most of the songs on it received mentions for the singles survey.
|  | | Ivica S. - 25/Apr/2021 Album No. 1 - The sound of the music is amazing, with tight production and inventive sounds sometimes up front, sometimes swirling around in the background. She has a distinctive sound, the closest comparison being to David Byrne/Talking Heads... Highly recommended
