Illinois but none of them are really that great imo
>>60696174
It's better to tier them
Tier One: Age of Adz and Illinois
Tier Two: Carrie and Lowell, All Delighted People
Tier Three: Avalanche, Michigan, Enjoy Your Rabbit
Tier Four: Seven Swans, Christmas
Tier Five: A Sun Came

>Michigan > Illinoi
People who think Michigan is better than Illinois are just contrarians. Illinois took everything that Michigan did well and did it better. Michigan is a great album, but come on.
I'll tier mine as well. Can't put them in a linear order.
Tier One
>Adz
>Carrie & Lowell
>Illinois
Tier Two
>All Delighted People
>Seven Swans
Tier Three
>Michigan
>Avalanche
Tier Four
>A Sun Came
>Enjoy Your Rabbit
>Christmas stuff

michigan is undeniably his best "folk" album but can you honestly argue that it's as interesting, unique, and powerful as Illinois and age of adz? In my experience the people who think Michigan is his best album are ones who value accessibility over experimentation or emotional impact.

you had a point with the illinois and michigan part but then somehow ranked seven swans over michigan. Michigan is to seven swans and the avalance what illinois is to michigan.

I don't think Michigan is to Illinois as Seven Swans is to Michigan. Yes MI and SS share similarities, but the lyrical content and overall vibe of the two albums are different. MI and IL are much more comparable in my opinion.

I like Michigan because I think it sets a tone unlike any other.
It's a weird tone-like a personal one. The only other albums I have ever gotten this feeling from is strangly A Rush Of Blood To The Head by Coldplay and OK Computer by Radiohead.
Part of it has to do with the fact that He describes my home state perfectly, and it touches home every time.
It also has a great ending to it.
It's the only album I have ever cried to as well.
Illinois is just as good don't get me wrong. Nothing beats driving into Chicago on a cold early spring day to catch a flight out of ohair listening to the album.

Pickerel Lake is definitely among my favorite Sufjan songs
