Listen: St. Vincent unveils new song, 'Bad Believer'
The song is taken from the singer's forthcoming deluxe album
Tags: St Vincent
St. Vincent has shared a predictably brilliant new song, 'Bad Believer', taken from her forthcoming deluxe album.
The song premiered on Lauren Laverne's 6 Music show this morning (20 January), and is one of six bonus tracks included on the forthcoming deluxe re-release of her self-titled fourth album.
After a spacey synth sound, 'Bad Believer' wastes no time getting to the infectious hook, before the characteristically distorted guitar riff kicks in. Lyrically, it takes a more explicit but opaque aim at religion, and, as with almost all St. Vincent songs, it only gets stronger with repeated listens.

The other five bonus tracks are 'Pieta' and 'Sparrow', which were released on vinyl for Black Friday, Japanese bonus track 'Del Rio', and Darkside's remix of 'Digital Witness'.
Despite being non-deluxe, the original version of the album was crowned Gigwise's album of the year.
