Finally released locally is the first in a proposed 50 cd collection dedicated to each U.S. state from folk legend Sufjan Stevens. The 15 tracks range from intimate soft spoken pieces to majestic 'Stereolab meets Luke Vibert meets Steve Reich gone folky' behemoths. In short, Illinois is one of the most important releases of this decade and Michigan is not too far behind. If you like Sufjan then you seriously need this album!
