I like it but I don't love it. I would rank it below Bon Iver and For Emma. It does get better with repeat listens, but that is true for pretty much any decent record. It is definitely good music for chilling out.

My favorite tracks are 29 #Strafford Apts, 8 (circle), 45, and 1000000 million

I am a big Sufjan Stevens fan, and I see some similarities between this album and Age of Adz. A little too much artificiality on both; they are at their best without the bells and whistles. On the other hand, experimentation is good, and at least he's not being lazy and doing the same thing over and over.

On a different note, the other new album I've been listening to is St Paul and the Broken Bones - Sea of Noise, which is amazing.

Same idea popped in my head. Adz sounded so much better live, and I bet this album is the same.
