Seven Swans is the fourth official studio album by American recording artist Sufjan Stevens. Originally released in 2004, the album is comprised of “lush acoustic compositions” paired with lyrics infused with Bible tales and Christian imagery. Don’t let that dissuade you, though – it’s a truly brilliant album, religious or not. The album name is an apparent reference to the Book of Revelation, the final book of the Bible, in which the people of Earth are judged and the righteous ascend to heaven.
