Pre-Order Thread

Have never listened to this Sufjan album but I think I am going to need this one.
you should definitely give it a listen before buying! I remember back in 2010 I HATED this album. I was so turned off from Sufjan for a couple of years because of it. I eventually came around to it and now really like it. It's very different than his other mainline solo albums, although a few collaboration albums since sound similar.

Well, this is an insta-buy ... My wife and I had one of the Mitch & Mickey songs from this on the CD we gave out at our wedding
 
Same.

Question for the masses: Is this weird song breakup thing people mentioned above a deal-breaker

Not as long as you know where to change it. It's a pretty awesome song.
Better question, does it need to be changed? I see they put Part V on side C. Does the beginning of Part V sound jolted or out of place? Pretend I've never heard the track before (I haven't)

I forget exactly where it breaks off but to me it would sound out of place because I know the song. If it's only the very last part of the song you probably wouldn't notice. The song is all build but then there's an acoustic slower part at the end that sounds kind of out of place anyway. If that's where it cuts off it would probably sound fine to you.
 
OK so I definitely saw him play this (and don the wings) at the 2016 Coachella. Was incredible.
Yeah. I actually found this set because I was looking for the Coachella 2016 set. It's was basically the same performance. I remember I turned on a live stream of Coachella about the time he was dancing in the balloon suit. I thought they had the artist labeled wrong because this was after Carrie & Lowell and I was expecting something more stripped down. Instead it was quite the opposite.

Yep. And at the end of 4th of July he basically says "We're all gonna die" for like a good 2-3 minutes. Ends up almost being a scream.
 
This begs the question, where is the next generation of Coppolas? It seems to have stopped with Sofia, Nicolas and Jason. I guess I did see Sofia’s daughter go viral on TikTok a couple months back.
You forgot Roman Coppola, Wes Anderson’s current writing buddy.

Didn’t Sofia and Phoenix lead singer, Thomas Mars have a couple of kids? I am sure they will start popping up here shortly.

Feels like at least one of Nic Cage's kids will end up famous, probably in a weird way. I'm pretty sure he's still having kids, too, so it'll be a while before we can close the book.
