Sufjan is the most overrated wankster I have ever seen. Illinoize actually has a handful of decent songs, amidst all the stupid sound effects and filler tracks. I hate it when artists get overly wanky like that. If you're tunes are really good, they will stand up without having to cover them up with "artsy" production. Case in point..the acoustic version of the song "chicago" is stunningly good. The one on the album is ruined by his over-ambition.
