Sufjan Stevens, Come On Feel The Illinoise

michigan is even better. much better, in fact.

the rest of his catalog disappoints in comparison.

interesting to read the liner notes: he thanks his local priest for letting him record some organ lines taken from the church organ. i want to say you can hear the train going by in the background of a track on michigan (as he recorded part of it in his apartment).

all said, SS is a genius. (if you like him, check out luke temple).
