she had a tight band on that tour

There might be!

PJ rocks, shes a mad bitch, i've got a friend thats obsessed with her and now she's a mad bitch as well

i only have 'is this desire' by PJ harvey but i love it.

"my first names angelene, prettiest mess you've ever seen"

dry was her best album..
rid of me was incredibly good..
stories from the city, stories from the sea was great..

i love the cover of the "stories for the city/stories from the sea" album.

I love all PJ Harvey

I found an import CD of DRY at my local record store a few years ago and almost creamed. I ahd been looking for it for years.

RID OF ME - I fucking love the fiercensss on this album. the songs are killer as well. I love how PJ's songs have this subtle propulsion, that turns into a raging inferno of cathartic rock.

I love all her albums. Is This Desire ( beautiful album), To Bring You My Love (heaviest BASS on any rock record I have ever ever heard), DRY (just the shit, the real deal shit), Stories from the city...Sea (fantastic gorgeous album. There are some songs on here that drive me to tears)
Uh HUH HER (I fucking love this album. this album is as spare as anything yet has such harsh flow.)

I think i might try to go to that one.Is she going to be there too?

ouch,nobody mentioned "dance hall at louse point"?
you guys are crazy...ha ha ha!
i am too,today.
i fu*king love that album,even if it's not 100% pj...it is jp+pj,funny...
john parish + polly jean
great great great great great great great great great great great great record.

edit: and nobody mentioned 4 track demos????
you are really crazy,then...

talk about underrated guitarists!!!

john parish is awesome!!!!

PJ Harbey is teh shiznit

I only have Dry, Rid of Me and Uh huh her. I like them a lot but in some instances, her lyrics can be a bit weak. Most of the time she hits the mark and it's really great. She has a beautiful voice and the music is nice mix of punk and blues. I am a pretty big fan of what i've heard so far and i eventually plan to acquire her complete catalogue.

*revised

eh,think about this: she recorded EVERYTHING by herself on that record (except the drums coz she "feels not enough confident doing this")

hmm. she's always naked in her albums.

her lyrics are weak? her lyrics are weak?

to each their own I guess. I think her shit is fierce.

I also own 4-track demos, and it is great. I own all the polly jean harvey!

I love PJ Harvey, he lyrics are very strong and sexy.

BTW, there is an upskirt shot of her floating around the internet, I think I saw it on google picture search. I hate to bring sex into the conversation, but who really gets off to upskirt shots?

Yeah when she hits the mark her songwriting is something to behold.
but i just feel that sometimes, y'know, she says some dumb stuff.

PJ Harvey does not always sing from her own persona you know.

It was in April man;).

It's cool to see some other PJ Harvey freaks. Rid of Me and To Bring You My Love rocked me for years and then Stories From the City, Stories From the Sea came out and blew my mind. It might be kind of sacrilige to some fans, but Stories has been my favorite since I heard it.....so good. There is some good live stuff/videos of hers on youtube too. I posted the video for A Place Called Home in that youtube thread.

Nevermind; I'm not bashing her. I really like her work, she's quite the gal.

What channel was it on? Maybe they will repeat it.

We have just got wind of the fact that Polly is due to commence work on a new record. It looks like work will start in November when Polly joins forces once again with Flood and John Parish (who will share production duties). As mentioned by Polly during recent appearances, the new material has been written mainly to piano, a brand new departure for Polly. We'll keep you posted on any updates as and when we get them.

polly on piano..
hey it's so hard to wait

i think she's entering the studio again soon with flood and the other guy to record a new album. news was on the nme website...
