Next month, Sufjan Stevens will return with The Ascension, his first proper album since 2015's Carrie & Lowell. Stevens has already shared "America," the massive 12-minute closing song that perversely stands as the album's first single, as well as the non-album track "My Rajneesh." Today, Stevens has followed it up with the new song "Vi...

Sufjan Stevens makes music all the time. Earlier this year, for instance, Stevens and his stepfather Lowell Brams collaborated on an ambient instrumental LP called Aporia. But Stevens does not make proper studio albums -- albums full of proper Sufjan Stevens songs -- often enough. The last real Sufjan Stevens album, the fragile and magnificent&a...
