As if Let England Shake weren't a record momentous and spellbinding enough already, by the time the impatiently aroused bugle fanfare of The Glorious Land harnesses Jean-Marc Butty's gallivanting, expressive rhythms every last scarcely visible hair on the back of the neck stands to attention, wavering in startled chill. It's palpably warm within the Royal Albert Hall, yet the songsmithery of great British heroine PJ Harvey is intensely bone-shuddering, her latest compositions as comfortable in its vast, annular expanse as antique tat on a dusty, burnt-out fireplace. There may be no "stinking alleys" in [...]

PJ Harvey parece estar totalemente concentrada en que el material de su nuevo disco, Let England Shake , recorra los oídos de todas las personas que asisten a sus presentaciones: al menos, eso es lo que podemos intuir a partir de las últimas acciones registradas por la prensa, las cuales indican precisamente que Harvey se encarga de tocar la mayor cantidad de temas posibles de su última placa, dejando un cierto gusto raro en la boca de los fanáticos que piden los temas clásicos de su repertorio. Según la estricta opinión de los periodistas de la [...]

Let England Shake, perhaps off-kilter songstress PJ Harvey's finest fortyish minutes yet, is released on Monday. Valentine's Day. And you get the irrevocable impression that on the condition that she's on British shores, she'll be with her true love. Her eighth studio LP sees longstanding collaborators John Parish and Mick Harvey contribute omnipresently, as the wondrously mystifying whirr of autoharps and mellotron warbles bounce about Harvey's now-trademark dirty guitar slump. Yet where Harvey has at times been altogether symbiotic in her approach to songwriting (the haunting wails of White Chalk are all but incomparable with its scruffy, scatty [...]
