Despite what my brain keeps telling me every time I read the headline, Flea is not on the new St. Vincent song. The song is called “Flea.” It does not involve the famed Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist. It does, however, feature a rock celebrity in the person of Dave Grohl. As is often the case with these guest appearances, Mr. Foo Fighters returns to his Nirvana capacity here, banging the drums while the brilliant journeyman Justin Meldal-Johnsen holds down the bass. The rest is all Annie Clark, who takes the opportunity to declare, “You will be mine for eternity.”
