Sufjan Stevens, Carrie & Lowell [10th Anniversary Edition]
Padded out with a personal essay, family photos, and outtakes, this re-release of Stevens’ album-length eulogy permits yet another return to the 1980s Oregon of the artist’s memory.

Alan Sparhawk, With Trampled by Turtles
Far more mournful than his solo debut from last year, the former Low member’s collaboration with the titular bluegrass band is drenched in sorrow, absence, longing, and dark devastation.

Cola Boyy, Quit to Play Chess
Despite bristling with Matthew Urango’s familiar cotton-candied disco, the late songwriter and activist’s sophomore album also opens the floodgates to everything else he seemed capable of.
Margaret Farrell
