| Sharon Van Etten Are We There |
| I enjoyed this a lot more than Tramp as an album, even if it was lacking obvious standouts like "Give Out." Overall I really enjoyed the mood, slower tempos and, of course, Sharon's incredible and unique voice in the indie folk/rock world. Quickly becoming one of my favorites of the year (behind Swans and Sunk Kil Moon, of course). |
