St. Vincent's new self-titled record contains its share of literary references, but what will serve as inspiration for her next disc? MTV News asked the woman herself, Annie Clark.

St. Vincent is a kind of woozy record, replete with a collage of stories and snippets -- from the time Clark went wandering in the desert naked and encountered a snake ("Rattlesnake") to a hallucination featuring Black Panther co-founder Huey Newton ("Huey Newton") to a short story by Lorrie Moore ("Severed Crossed Fingers").

As Clark begins working on new tunes, she told MTV News, she has been looking toward similar buckets of experience both personal and artistic: from eavesdropping on pals to taking in documentaries about infamous trickster Frédéric Bourdin.
