Sufjan Stevens Hates His Music
Obscenely Popular Music Review Site: Were there any plans to tour behind the material on The Avalanche?
Sufjan: I don't think so. I don't think it's worth touring. There's one song...
Obscenely Popular Music Review Site: You sound really, really excited about this record.
Sufjan: [Laughing] I'm excited about it, but from a technical point of view. I like some of the songs. I think there's one song I would play live, which is "The Mistress Witch From McClure". But it just sounds like another song I wrote. I need to be less deprecating; I should be more promotional.
Obscenely Popular Music Review Site: You say "these songs sound like songs I wrote," as if that's a surprise to you. Are you getting tired of your sound?
Sufjan: Yes. I'm getting tired of my voice. I'm getting tired of...the banjo. I'm getting tired of...the trumpet.
Poor Sufjan. He better not stress out and kill himself, because God will hate him.
