The LP version of Sufjan Stevens' latest release, Seven Swans, proudly released in cooperation with the kind folks at Sounds Familyre. Sufjan's fourth album follows closely to last year's Michigan album which made many year-end top 10 lists. Seven Swans features delicate, whispered songs, fraught with mystical imagery, borrowing equally from Flannery O'Connor and the Old Testament, often with just a plucked banjo or a upright piano for accompaniment. Sufjan's moments of quiet reflection possess an almost painful beauty, and when the choir kicks in at the end of the title song, you'll be transported entirely.
