Album Rating: 2.5
Review summary: 5/5
Album: 2.5/5
Sufjans vocals suck the ass of several thousand public gas station restrooms on this. I'd actually listen to tracks like Lamentations and Ativan more than once if Sufjan didn't sing.
The songs themselves are inconsistent in quality but an instrumental version of this could be 3-3.5 material. It's hard to tell because some tracks that don't stand out enough to bypass the shit-ness of his vocals might actually be stronger than they seem. But there are a couple songs that do, in fact, manage to work around the extreme amounts of booty that his voice slurps and I can tell they could possibly be 4/5's.

The vocals are so bad that although I can tune them out enough to enjoy those few tracks during a comfortable private headphone session, it would be a truly shameful and humiliating experience to have to endure them at any audible volume through speakers.

Would not jam in my whip even at low volume with the windows closed . Would not even jam at home at 10% on my laptop speakers just in case my cat heard.

Why does every electronic album get compared to Everything Now when Sufjan has been making electronic albums since 2004[2]

Aside from Death Star maybe, I have no idea what is specifically "wrong" with the vocals.

They are utterly vapid.

When I first listened to this I thought the vocals sounded dangerously close to Owl City, but now I'm pretty sure it was a conscious decision to sound slightly numb, and I've actually developed some respect for them from a stylistic point of view. Except Death Star, which feels like it should sound angry.

I've never been a huge Sufjan Stevens fan and this is a lot of the same. Sure, its more electronic and dreamscape based than previous albums, but there is seriously nothing new here.

Yeah, I mean let's face it, this sounds like Carrie and Lowell pt 2. Seriously no variety.

This just gives me the same feeling as all those youtube musicians with really detailed and smooth production with lots of cool details but absolutely no songwriting talent which feels weird to say considering this is Sufjan we're talking about

If there is one thing this does not sound like, it is that.

honestly if sufjan made another album in the vein of illinois i would not complain at all about retreading old territory but it seems like the ship may have sailed for that
