yeah so far she has developed the most as a character and has the most sense since the other three are objectively atrocious human beings

Held off on rating this, but I'm listening again, and I just don't think it's my cup of tea.

Haven't heard age of adz, but apparently it's an Art Pop album and this is straightforward Singer/Songwriter folk album, so what's so hard to understand lol.

I'm glad you all were able to smooth ruffled feathers over your mutual love for "Girls". If its Apatow I'll check eventually.



I wish this had a little more going on. There were similar tracks on Seven Swans that threw in some electronic elements. Elevated that material imo.

Sufjan Stevens seventh studio album Carrie & Lowell is also his most simple, stripped down album to date. The project bears the name of his birthmother Carrie as well as her second husband Lowell, both of whom had very limited interaction with Stevens in his early years and up until recently when Stevens was able to reconnect with her mother before her death in 2012. The album’s simplicity is also its beauty, featuring minimal pieces mainly consisting of Stevens and his guitar, with flourishes of other instrumentation. While this project lacks the massive scope and ambition of his previous works, such as his albums Michigan and Illinois, Carrie & Lowell is an excellent album in its own right, focusing more on lyrics and its emotional atmosphere more than Stevens’ past work.
