Tried to like the songs I've heard. Somehow I found them irritating, including the movement of her mouth on those videos. I think she's tackling the subject in a redundant manner that would please tourists or something.

It seems like Arcade Fire has fooled almost everyone under 30. they are just a modern, artsy version of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. http://rock.about.com/od/top10lists/...steenBands.htm But I guess that could work for some people. I just don't care for Bruce's music much I guess. I do, however, like modern, artsy versions of Sonic Youth (blonde redhead, mogwai, etc). |

I can't help but thinking how wonderful "to bring you my love" "is this desire" "rid of me" and "dry" were. From "uh huh her" onwards I felt I couldn't relate so much, as if there was something missing, or maybe I'm being bias because I love those previous albums so much. Not to say they aren't good albums, they all are but I just wasn't that fascinated. Except for her last album with Parish "a woman a man walked by" which to me sounds a million times better than any of her last songs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQPkLPqEgIE Saw them in London last April and it was one of the best gigs I have ever been to.

I love her all albums but I think she´s golden period started with "To Bring you my love" and it has continued since then!

I never managed to listen to "uh huh her" or "white chalk" from start to finish.

"Uh huh her" has really grown on me (at the beginning I didn't like it very much apart from 3 or 4 songs), on the other hand "White chalk" bores me.

On Dazed Digital's January playlist you can hear the studio version of PJ Harvey's song, "Let England Shake".
Link: http://www.dazeddigital.com/music/ar...-2011-playlist Also, there's a 5 track sample of the album in this blog: http://januarysunday.blogspot.com/20...t-england.html |

On Battleship Hill could be in a film. Maybe the rest of this will grow on me. I like All and Everyone and England as well.

but i only just realised that White Chalk was a reference to the Dover/South Coast cliffs and not white chalk lines around a dead body.... |
