Review by Riffiter

Carrie & Lowell

Sufjan Stevens · 2015

5.0

Grief, documented at whisper volume: Carrie & Lowell processes Stevens' mother's death through Oregon childhood memories, fingerpicked guitars and double-tracked hush. "Fourth of July"'s deathbed dialogue ends on the only conclusion — we're all gonna die — sung like a lullaby. The most devastating album of its decade, and among the most beautiful.
