St. Vincent's new album 'Actor' (4AD), released last week snagged the #90 spot on the Billboard Top 200 and #9 on the Billboard indie chart.
The album has been receiving rave reviews from critics with NPR describing it as "a surreal sonic wonderland" and last week's New York Times claiming St. Vincent's music "defies categories".
