Best of #SXSW 2014, bigger-show edition: Went in with high expectations and they were exceeded by far. So glad I didn't miss it.
#Top31Tracksof2014: Most of us are in agreement, I assume, that one of 2014's very best albums was Annie Clark's fourth album proper under the "St. Vincent" name. The eponymous album stripped everything back to reveal her art-pop centre and very confrontational new persona, loading the album with direct, hook-filled, and lyrically incisive pop songs that, in a just world, would have catapulted her into the mainstream.
But the song that ended up on my Best Tracks of 2014 countdown is "Huey Newton" for reasons that will be abundantly clear to anybody who knows me, and for those that don't by about the 2:38 mark. #bestof2014

Also great live!
A high point on an album of high points. St Vincent is cooler than everyone
