Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory (Amber Galaxy Vinyl) [Vinyl]

From the off, Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory is sonically different from Van Etten s previous work. Writing and recording in total collaboration with her band for the first time, Van Etten finds the freedom that comes by letting go – letting go of her normal modus operandi or the need for control or attachment to the outcome. No safety net. It s somewhat terrifying, but also liberating. The result of that liberation is an exhilarating new dimension of sound and songwriting. The themes are timeless, classic Sharon – life and living, love and being loved – but the sounds are new, wholly realized and sharp as glass.
