"The warmest and coziest album which will undoubtedly act as a musical companion for many winters to come. Underneath its unintentionally festive exterior lies 10 lyrically heartbreaking tracks which explore themes including love and crippling loss which welcome us with open arms into Sufjan Stevens’ psyche. With most songs beginning as an introspective solo venture, they soon ascend into a gorgeous choral union, which reminds us that even the bleakest things in life don’t have to be so lonely."

Each track on Javelin starts intimately: the trickle of an acoustic guitar, the patter of a lidded piano, and the cascade of a coruscant arpeggio. And then, of course, there is that disarming voice, the throughline in one of the most eclectic catalogs of any songwriter this century—soft but strong, as if the very scenes of hurt and hope it is about to share have only galvanized it through the decades. Javelin pairs musical sweep with emotional breadth, an entire lifetime of feeling woven into 42-minutes. On Javelin, Sufjan, as you may know him best, returns: offering gorgeous if pained glimpses of himself, so that we may see ourselves more fully.
