They did an amazing job. Really, this is the all-star line up of indie music. And I agree that the Sufjan track is fantastic, definitely one of the highlights, along with Knotty pine and The National's track (which was a really pleasant surprise after Boxer). That's all from the first disc though, I haven't managed to properly digest the second one yet. Too much good stuff happening on the first one...(:
