In all honesty, this album makes for a pretty difficult to listen to soundtrack, and to anyone who attempts to argue for the opposite I commend you. Nonetheless, this album in its entirety turns out being really beautiful. Along with keeping some of the Sufjan-ey spriteness, this album displays beautifully the more experimental side in him that is realized to a greater extent in "The Age of Adz". Not as perfect as Illinoise and not as confusing as some of his earlier work, but amazing background music if you need something pretty to listen to while focusing on something else. 3.7/5
