New Sufjan Full Length Album!

August 26th, 2010 · No Comments · Sufjan Stevens

Man this guy is an anomaly. The album art is above, and fyi ADZ is pronounced “odds”. Release date is October 12th. The good news? It’s Sufjan’s first “song-based” album since 2005 (or 2006 if you include Avalanche). The possibly disconcerting news? The description talks about this album trading in banjos for drum machines… Regardless [...]

Holy Smokes, A New Sufjan Album In The Works

According to The National guitarist Bryce Dessner, Sufjan and himself are currently working on a new album. It sounds as though it will be quite different than Sufjan’s past albums, but the important thing here is that good old Suf hasn’t vanished like I once had feared. And this upcoming project sounds absolutely incredible. For [...]

My Favorite Eleven Albums of 2009!

December 23rd, 2009 · 1 Comment · Bishop Allen, Bowerbirds, Cotton Jones, Death Cab For Cutie, Fanfarlo, Fruit Bats, Slow Club, Sufjan Stevens, The Wooden Birds, Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Documenting the albums that I have enjoyed the most each year is one of the most time-intensive and pleasurable posts for me. I don’t like the swarm of “Best Of ___” lists that each of us has to deal with at the end of the year. 2009 has been especially crazy seeing as it’s the decade-ender, [...]

Like Graffiti in a Bathroom Stall

December 1st, 2009 · No Comments · Sufjan Stevens

Another interview with Sufjan Stevens! He has really been doing a lot of these lately! This one goes more in depth about privacy, the downfalls of the internet, and in my opinion this interview provides the most insight into the mind of good ol’ Suf. Favorite quote from the interview? I have three. “I guess [...]

Sufjan Stevens "BQE" in only 449 Words!

October 15th, 2009 · No Comments · Sufjan Stevens

Sufjan Stevens is one interesting chap. That’s pretty much the thought that I had over and over again while listening to my latest music acquisition, Sufjan Stevens’ The BQE. This is a kid that grew up playing the oboe a some other random instruments, not picking up the guitar until his late teens. And now [...]
