I agree about the idea of dismissing something just because someone or other likes or dislikes that thing. I do like Sufjan's work a great deal, and I love the work of David Bazan, although I've never seen him as one to look toward positive things, every album he did, even while a Christian, was pretty down. The new one has some pop-ish stuff that's awfully fun. I do have that new album and enjoy it.
