After 45-plus minutes of raw, enrapturing emotion, there comes a bit of studio goofery, the kind of thing that usually gets spliced into records half-heartedly; here, though, it is both a relief and a comfort, that Van Etten has made it through these harsh times with not just her humor intact, but her spirit. It's a rare moment in popular music that makes me sit up and suddenly re-evaluate everything I've just heard on a contextual level: happily, in this case, it makes me only appreciate Van Etten's talents more. My weakness as a reviewer is to analyze an album's cover art to glean knowledge of the contents within, but for Are We There, it seems all too fitting. Resources Related Stories 1 Photo

Le Tournedisque Maison close pour beats depuis 2011. Un concept simple : pas de critiques enflammées, pas de fioritures. Que du son, tous les jours. Il y aura toujours plus grand que nous, plus fort que nous, plus blindé que nous. Nous sommes l'outsider qui fout des gifles à qui veut l'entendre. A simple concept : no impassioned reviews, no bullshit. Some will always be bigger, stronger or richer than us. We're the outsider that slaps whoever wants to hear us.
