One of Sufjan's most beautiful albums, and that's saying a lot.

Crazy to see someone with the robust catalog of Sufjan to still be able to show growth and emotion in new music. Such a gorgeous album

RIP Evans Richardson. Such a lovely tribute and album from an equally lovely man.

The âI donât wanna fight at all / I will always love youâ in Shit Talk with the backing vocals and final crescendo into the wall of sound is one of the most powerful and beautiful things Iâve ever heard in my life

This is your redemption arc after your Carrie and Lowell review

The 4th "Hold me closely, hold me tight" from Sufjan is so heart wrenching and beautiful, it gives me chills and I just wanna rewind it every time I hear it.

Over 20 years into his career, and he just released what could be his best album ever

This album devastates me, knowing what circumstances surround the album. The music touches with me on a level I havenât really felt before. I can listen but the moment I dig into the lyrics I cry and am not able to finish. Itâs almost too beautiful for me. And it makes me feel almost guilty knowing how much Sufjan put into it. I pray Sufjan recovers, and that he finds the peace heâs brought so many.

This album is a perfect 10 in my opinion. Doesnât put a foot wrong, absolutely stunning musical performance. The context of the album is devastating, but Sufjan finds a way to channel his grief into absolute beauty, while still retaining the element of sadness. With this album he has mastered his craft.

Layers upon layers of pain. Losing what is essentially a soul mate and then struggling with a debilitating illness. I did not think he could expand the thematic, unresolved grief from Carrie and Lowell, however I do believe this is a man's soul baring moment that is one for the modern ages. It is bittersweet because only through immense pain can a seminal work be so thorough. Pure art, in other words.

Sufjan hasn't sounded so LUSH since Illinois and his lyrics are beautiful and sad. This is my album of the year and I am so grateful for Sujan's generosity and artistry for sharing this with us.

Shit Talk is one of the most beautiful songs i've ever listened to, i've never seen before a song capture so accurately the feeling of a relationship falling apart with toxicity and constant fighting to the point you feel like you can't be near that person anymore, "i will always love you but i cannot look at you", and the final part where Sufjan keeps singing "i don't wanna fight at all" because it happened so much it made him exausted of it while "i will always love you" keeps being said by the backing vocals is just perfection, one of his BEST songs ever.

Album so good the comments are serious for once

I put this album on last night while i was high, and I have never cried so hard in a long timeâŚfor no apparent reasons either. It was a cathartic session, one i didnât know i needed. Definitely gonna be one of my fave albums this year!

Such a wonderful, touching record. It combines so many of Sufjanâs sounds from over the years so well. Itâs sure to stay in my rotation for a very long time.

For someone whoâs so reserved,I think Sufjanâs songwriting is top tier because in this like 30-40 minute stretch,he gives us so much information about this relationship and loss and itâs just crushing. Really hurts to listen to,I really want Sufjan to be okay,always been one of my favorites. This and the Armand Hammer record are my favorites this year and they couldnât be any more different

Even though the context of the album and themes in the songs are so heartbreaking, it also feels so hopeful for what is to come in the future (especially on the final track). Sufjan gives me hope to overcome obstacles in my life, and I hope he does for you as well.

One of the most cohesive and lush albums Iâve ever in a good minute. Album of the year in my book. Rest in peace to Evans. Stay strong Sufjan! We all love you!

This was my first time checking out a Sufjan album and itâs honestly brought me back to how I felt listening to my first Bjork album (vespertin). Thereâs a strange magic to stumbling across some of an artistâs greatest work on a whim, and it makes me excited to dive deeper into his catalog

One of the most beautiful albums I've ever heard. This remind me of Mount Eerie's Crow, two albums about love and death that hit you like "This is the prettiest album ever, I don't wanna touch this ever again"

You know an album is actually meaningful to a lot of people when even a Fantano comment section loses the humor and focuses on the album
