Sharon Van Etten has always been the kind of artist who helps people make sense of the world around them, and her sixth album, “We’ve Been Going About This All Wrong”, concerns itself with how we feel, mourn, and reclaim our agency when we think the world – or at least, our world – might be falling apart. Van Etten creates a stunning meditation on how life’s changes can be both terrifying and transformative. “We’ve Been Going About This All Wrong” articulates the beauty and power that can be rescued from our wreckages. There is darkness here but there is light too, and all of it is held together by Van Etten’s uncanny ability to both pierce the hearts of her listeners and make them whole again. Things are not dark, she reminds us, only darkish.
