After teasing with a few fantastic songs this summer, Sufjan Stevens has released his 8th studio album today,
The Ascension, via Asthmatic Kitty. The ethereal, electronic orchestration reflects his work on 2010's
The Age of Adz, and we've been spinning (and enjoying) "Video Game" in new rotation on XRT. He's released the full album stream on his website (below) but you can also purchase the album
