Annie Clark and her band returned to the Late Show tonight, unveiling how “Cruel” — last week’s official video-donning Strange Mercy preview — translates to the live stage. Setting aside the dark comedic tone of the clip (in which Clark gets buried alive and stuffed in a trunk, etc.), St. Vincent & co. showed up decked out in black evening wear for a take that’s impressively faithful to the record. Check it out above (via Audio Perv).
