- Look at all of those delighted people.
Finally, some new material from Sufjan Stevens that isn't a boring, orchestral soundtrack for his movie about some road. Today, you can stream Stevens' new EP, All Delighted People, in its entirety here. OR, you can purchase the whole thing for a measly five bucks. Here's a little description from his Bandcamp page:
All Delighted People is built around two different versions of Sufjan’s long-form epic ballad "All Delighted People," a dramatic homage to the Apocalypse, existential ennui, and Paul Simon’s "Sounds of Silence." Sounds delightful, yes! The song was originally workshopped on Sufjan’s previous tour in the fall of 2009. Other songs on the EP include the 17-minute guitar jam-for-single-mothers "Djohariah," and the gothic piano ballad "The Owl and the Tanager."
17-minutes of guitar jamming? Don't single moms have it hard enough?
The EP will be available at all other digital outlets on August 23rd and on CD/Vinyl sometime later this year. Also, as previously mentioned on this blog, Sufjan will be playing in Portland on October 29th at the Schnitzer for a slightly less measly $34.75 at best.
