Sufjan Stevens - The Ascension (New Album)

I tried to listen to this album and thought the first two tracks were good sonically, but there's just something about it that turns me off. Which is a shame because Carrie and Lowell is one of the most beautiful things ever to be put to record. It's painfully beautiful and haunting.

 

Does anyone know where these are from?

 

Seems to be from a lost video for Sisyphus - Rhythm of Devotion. I've never seen it, or heard of it. Interesting.

 

Ian Holm in Alien realness.

This album just gets better and better with every play. I have it on a loop all morning and whenever I drift out from it and tune back in I keep thinking 'Is that Robyn'? Some of this album is very Honeyesque.

 

I found Video Games a bit basic when it came out but i've been converted. It's actually quite powerful really, the perfect song for drunkenly dancing around your bedroom to.

 

Man there's something about electro Sufjan and my mental breakdowns that just gel. What a perfect album for surviving in this mess of a world

 

Oooh this is stun. And Justin Vernons on another track? Idk who Carm is but I’m living.
