* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: ''Surgeon''

** Also, ''The Apocalypse Song'':

* IntercourseWithYou: ''Surgeon'', again.
* LastNoteNightmare: ''Black Rainbow'' is a rather calm and melodic song (even though it contains some really [[LyricalDissonance depressing lyrics]]) that ends with some really heavy guitar distortion.
* LyricalDissonance: ''Oh so much''. ''Now, Now'', ''Black Rainbow'', ''Laughing With a Mouth of Blood'', ''Cheerleader'', ''The Bed''... The list could go on and on.

* TheSomethingSong: ''The Apocalypse Song''.
* ShoutOut: The lines "best finest surgeon, come cut me open", from the song ''Surgeon'', were originally written by [[MarilynMonroe Marilyn Monroe]] on her diary. The title of her first album, ''Mary Me'', also came after an episode from ''Series/ArrestedDevelopment''.

Relevant tropes:

''St. Vincent'' is the {{stage name}} of multi-instrumentalist Annie Clark. Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Annie was part of The Polyphonic Spree (a choral symphonic rock band) and part of the {{Sufjan Stevens}}' touring band before going solo with the name St. Vincent, which she claims to be either a reference Saint Vincent's Catholic Medical Center where the Welsh poet Dylan Thomas died in 1953, or her grandmother's middle name.

As of 2012 she released three albums:

St. Vincent also opened shows to diverse bands like Television, {{Arcade Fire}}, {{Death Cab for Cutie}}, Grizzly Bear, Andrew Bird, among others. She and Bon Iver also composed the song ''Roslyn'', part of the {{New Moon}} soundtrack- as one of the examples of good musicians associated with those movies.

Annie Clark's music contains heavy guitar riffs (her signature instrument) together with somehow melodic singing and melodies, and [[{{Lyrical Dissonance}} angry lyrics]].
