Sufjan Stevens to follow EP with new album
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater August 26th, 2010

So, just days after surprising us with the immediate release of a new EP Sufjan Stevens is giving us another pleasant update, now announcing the release of another full-length record, his first since the opus that was Come On Now Feel The Illinoise*.

The new one is called The Age of Adz and, we are reliably told, is pronounced "the age of odds". Whatever the hell that is. The artwork - fairly impressive - is below, as is the tracklisting. It all builds up to a 25-minute final track, by the way. It comes out on October 11 through Asthmatic Kitty, of course.

From http://cdn.stereogum.com/files/2010/08/Sufjan-Stevens-The-Age-Of-Adz-Album-Art.jpg

  1. Futile Devices
  2. Too Much
  3. Age of Adz
  4. I Walked
  5. Now That I'm Older
  6. Get Real Get Right
  7. Bad Communication
  8. Vesuvius - 5:26
  9. All for Myself - 2:55
  10. I Want To Be Well - 6:27
  11. Impossible Soul - 25:35

The album contains lots of themes. Let's just say it's about many things, as you'd expect.

*We know it's not really called that, but humour us, OK?
