There isn’t anybody quite like Annie Clark — a.k.a. St. Vincent — and on May 14, the prolific singer/songwriter with a career that spans genres and styles while defying (and exceeding) expectations at every turn, will release a new studio album titled Daddy’s Home.

It’ll be her sixth studio album to date, and was previewed on Thursday with a new music video for “Pay Your Way In Pain,” which sounds like the product of some late-night binging on Prince and David Bowie. Watch below:

“Daddy’s Home collects stories of being down and out in downtown NYC,” said St. Vincent in a statement about the new record. “Last night’s heels on the morning train.  Glamour that’s been up for three days straight.”

Per a news release, Daddy’s Home also draws its inspiration from Clark’s personal life, stemming back to 2019 on the heels of a GRAMMY win related to her album MASSEDUCATION:

In the winter of 2019, as MASSEDUCTION’s title track won the GRAMMY for Best Rock Song and the album won Best Recording Package, St. Vincent’s father was released from prison. She began writing the songs that would become Daddy’s Home, closing the loop on a journey that began with his incarceration in 2010, and ultimately led her back to the vinyl her dad had introduced her to during her childhood.  The records she has probably listened to more than any other music in her entire life. Music made in sepia-toned downtown New York from 1971-1975. 

Here’s the album’s track listing:

1. Pay Your Way In Pain
2. Down And Out Downtown
3. Daddy’s Home

5. The Melting Of The Sun
6. Humming [Interlude 1]
