Yeah, it's funny that the autotune seems to piss so many off. In my 3 runs thru this magnificent album so far, I see that aspect as an "artistic choice" which actually enhances the proceedings. I mean, Christ, Lennon did that thing in Tomorrow Never Knows. Was that a bad thing?
I do agree though that the electronics are "flourishes" and not some kind of Metal Machine Music redifine. It still very much sounds like a Sufjan album.
Just like Kid A was very obviously Radiohead, from the first 30sec. OKC be damned.
