4.0 excellent | Rik VII (sound-off ratings out of 10) | July 21st 19 | Even though it's not a consistent album experience in itself, The Avalanche still has its fair share of memorable moments and shows a great attention to detail - both of which would have been completely fine for a regular release instead of a collection of b-sides. For a more thorough elaboration, check my review. - 7.5

3.5 great | TRMshadow | July 11th 12 | As with almost all "b-sides/extras" albums, it's a little disappointing. However, if you're smart like me, you'll be prepared for the slight disappointment and will be better able to enjoy the album for what it is. Sufjan knew for a fact that none of these songs were as good as the ones he chose to keep on Illinoise, is it his fault if this isn't as good as that??? In the end, it's length and lack of any bombastic singles will keep the non-fanboys uninterested, but for us in the other party, it's well worth keeping around. 3.7/5

0.0 | biografiend | September 25th 06 | 3 versions of Chicago?!?! Enough already.
The Avalanche captures the awkward Michigan/Illinois transition. While Springfield and Adlai stand out as superb, the rest are un-unique b-sides that should have stayed as b-sides.
