Description
The Empire might have crumbled but Polly Harvey, on this form, is queen Victoria Segal, Q - 5 StarsOf all her many guises doomed blues siren; righteous rock vixen; tormented Victorian ghost this may be her most powerful.Mojo 4 StarsPJ Harveys new album Let England Shake was recorded in a 19th Century church in, Dorset, on a cliff top overlooking the sea. It was created with a cast of musicians including such long-standing allies as Flood, John Parish, and Mick Harvey. It is the eighth PJ Harvey album, following 2007s acclaimed White Chalk, and the Harvey/Parish collaboration A Woman A Man Walked By.Let England Shake evokes the troubled spirit of 2010, but it also casts its mind back to times and places from our long collective memory. In keeping with such imaginative intentions, its music has a rare breadth and emotional power. Nearly two decades after she made her first records, it proves not just that its author refuses to stand still, but that her creative confidence may well be at an all-time high. It is safe to say that you will not have heard anything like it before.
