Carrie & Lowell

Sufjan Stevens

★★★★★5.0
discovered winter 2020

I put this on during a long drive and had to pull over. Not because it's a sad album — though it is — but because it's so specific. The grief is particular and named and that makes it more universal somehow. Death With Dignity and Should Have Known Better are in my permanent memory. Return it to regularly, always unexpectedly.

why I return

It's the most honest thing I've heard about grief.
