Our favorite former-Polyphonic-Spree-member-turned-indie-rock-sensation, Annie Clark (aka St. Vincent) just keeps getting more and more love and hype for her upcoming May 5 release, Actor. And not just from us, go figure.

Starting tonight at 10:59 p.m. (11:59 p.m. EST), NPR will stream St. Vincent's sophomore album in its entirety. And, even more conveniently, the stream will remain up on NPR's Exclusive First Listen site for the next two weeks.

While you're waiting out the next 12 hours or so, go back and watch the video for the almost-title-track "Actor out of Work". Then get stoked about seeing Clark's June 18 performance at the Granada.
