#1665 Sufjan Stevens - Carrie & Lowell

Hey kid, wanna see a dead body? And then it's your dead body, and it flutters apart in streamers of light into a million pearly butterflies and you cry at the beauty of it.

Sufjan's masterpiece, destined to be an I See a Darkness / Sapphie kind of cult classic, he tells these stories of loss and pain with such grace that they become yours and transcend themselves all at once, bathed in ethereal sounds to perfect for human hands. It cuts so deep, so quick, so well, that it hurts just to listen 4/5
