thumbsup couldnt agree more. This whole thing could be a instance of:
forgiving the lack of sonic fidelity as a trade off of a well-arranged batch of songs.
ive said it before in another thread for some other reason, but its amazing how easier it is to look past a shitty recording when the song is good.
not saying Sufjan's recordings are shitty, but I will say that using "Guerrila Recording Techniques" on already shitty music would cause much more dismay. But this could be stating the obvious. Anyone with an mbox and a 57 can record a shitty song using shitty equipment==DOUBLE SHIT!
The "Hero" in this case created good music on arguably crappy equipment and even crappier techniques--hence, he's almost a "hero" in this article.
