Have had it since its release but much preferred his later output especially The Age Of Adz & Carrie & Lowell.

Am I the only Sufjan fan who HATES Age of Adz? I do not understand that album's appeal and I still think of it as a huge misstep.


Nope, I agree. I think Age of Adz is undoubtably a misstep. I almost never go back to it apart from Impossible Soul.


tfw this turns into the roasting of The Age of Adz and basically could go on the controversial opinions forum just as easily:



Don't worry I love you Adz, it's kind of is like his - here comes the pretension - KID A or Homogenic. Yes I just said that...

FIGHT ME!

I got to see Age of Adz performed live (mostly) in full with Cubazed, and while it cemented how much I do not like the album, I can't deny that the themes Sufjan shares about depression and happiness are important, true, and even profound.

Hence my Radiohead & Bjork comparison.
