I don't think its on the level of Illinois but I also think its unreasonable to always compare an artist's output with their opus. As a piece of music in the grand design of Sufjan's world though, this album has delivered spectacularly. The way you can draw a thematic line between Carrie and Lowell and this album through everything he released between them is, I believe, the most underappreciated thing about Sufjan's discography. Its just sooo delicate, almost surgically precise.. and it has landed so beautifully, so theatrically on this excellent album. Its masterful. A fulfilled vision of an artist in complete control of his art. There is no one making music right now, who is in the same league as Sufjan. I don't mean that he's that good that no one can touch him (though he makes a solid case for it), but the way he has a handle on his career and his sound and the unhinged, unrestricted creative vision he displays. Its a treat to be witnessing his music career in real time. "  [+]  Reply

I feel like more people might love it if they heard it. In some ways I feel like this is a Daniel Lanois album with Emmylou Harris on vocals. It contains a couple of his best songs and sort of picks up where "The Beauty of Wynona" left off sonically. Of course most the songs are covers. I feel like there may be a world of good country music out there that I don't have exposure to. I would like Emmylou Harris to be my guide."  [+]  Reply

I loved every second of this from the very beginning, and every time I've listened to it my love has only grown. Although it isn't necessary, one can better understand I Am Easy To Find if seen as a companion to the short film and vice-versa. They compliment each other in a magnificent way. Providing not only imagery but context for the lyrics, which are some of the best the band has ever written. In "Quiet Light", the first verse struck a chord with me as few other songs in their catalogue have done. This album shows us that The National can still evolve as a band, incorporating new elements into their songwriting but still maintaining their own style. The guest vocals don't feel alien, but compliment Matt's voice in the best way possible. The contrast between high and low tones makes every song reach deeper into the soul. This synergy is best heard in "Where Is Her Head", an extremely energetic song about parent paranoia. I Am Easy To Find is a record about marriage (oh, surprise) and about being a parent. The tracklist follows a narrative; it has a three-act structure that shows us the evolution of the narrator through all of his dilemmas, and when you realize you've reached "Light Years", you can contemplate what a beautiful experience you just had. The strings, the arrengements, everything in here is extremely well done. It may feel somehow long at first, but the more you listen to it, the more it grows on you and it's when you can start dissecting the songs at a deeper level. I Am Easy To Find is my favorite record of 2019 and it may become one of my all-time favorites this decade. In my opinion, it doesn't top Boxer or High Violet, but it's still an almost-perfect album. A very beautiful experience that only gets better with time. I may raise my 90 to a 95 soon."  [+]  Reply

But for me, it's my favorite manson album, rising above the usual manson-whored metal template to put a glam sheen on depravity. That "rock is dead" song from the matrix is here, but there are other rockin' highlights as well. "Posthuman" (where he sings "god is just a statistic") match "rock"'s ferocity. The mood is set with opener "great big white world" with marilyn singing "In space the stars are no nearer / They just glitter like a morgue / And I dreamed I was a spaceman / Burned like a moth in a flame" adding synth FX after the first verse (and i like the squealing guitar/synth at the end). "the dope show" ("cops and queers make good looking models") and "i don't like the drugs (but the drugs like me)" (ha ha) were the post-"rock is dead" radio hits, but songs "new model no. 15", "the speed of pain" and "user friendly" ("i'm not in love but i'm gonna f*ck you 'til somebody better comes along") are just as wide-audience worthy. As usual with manson, it's a god, drugs & rock'n'roll show. The title track's repeated verse states "you were..as hollow as the 'o' in 'god') and "drugs" says "Our God is white and unforgiving / We're piss tested and we're prayin'" On the subject of drugs there's "There's a hole in our soul / That we're fillin' with dope / And we're feeling fine" I like the backing vox in the spacey, slow-build of "speed of pain" where "the crack inside your f@cking heart is me". But for my money, it's ironic that "rock is dead" is the best song simply being a pretty straight-forward rock song. This definitely non-metal style has since been abandoned by Marilyn, and it's a shame."  [+]  Reply
