Customer Rating:      Summary: HOT & Mesmerizing. Comment: Truly she is an amazing sensual Goddess!
PJ Harvey has unbelievable vocal talent.
I have bought almost all of her work and I am craving more.
Her music is a Haunting, Sweet, and brutally honest journey into the minds of us all, so humanly perverse yet innocent.
Surround yourself with her music and and feel it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: new PJ Harvey fan--I LOVE this album Comment: I bought this somewhat on a whim, having only seen the video for "Down By The Water," along with PJ's other album Rid Of Me. Honestly, I expected to like the other better, but I have absolutely fallen in love with this record. It's so dark and haunting and beautiful--and not really what I was expecting based on just one song. But I suppose that's fitting of all of PJ's work.
If you're at all interested in PJ Harvey, or alternative music or female musicians, you must own this album!
Customer Rating:      Summary: The one that started it for me. Comment: This was the first PJ Harvey album I bought - I saw her that summer on tour with Live and Veruca Salt and a friend of mine had issues with the lack of great drumming (and the occasional use of a drum machine). In a recent interview, she said that there were 3 albums she was satisfied with at the time she made them - this one, Is This Desire? and White Chalk. Before this album, I'd never heard the guitars sound the way they do and some of the music was featured in movies as well (some movie with Leonardo DiCaprio where he plays... I forget). Long story short, if you like her, you probably already have it in your collection. If you don't have it in your collection (and you're a fan), you should =D
Customer Rating:      Summary: questionable service, questionable quality Comment: It took the company 3 weeks to ship this one cd. 2 weeks after I made my purchase, I sent a polite email stating that my credit card has already been charged but I have yet to receive my product. My email was never returned! When I received the cd, finally, it has some skips in it and was not playable on my computer for some reason.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Perfection. Comment: By far this is my favorite album of all time. It contains all of the elements I love in music: gut wrenching blues, edgy guitars, beautiful lyrics, raw passion, a conceptual idea, and PJ Harvey. It is both dramatic and sleek at the same time - to me it is produced to perfection. All of the songs fit perfectly together to aid in the design. PJ's performace is simply astounding: a force. Like any gifted artist, she has a clear, unabashed viewpoint. I can see how some may be thrown off by the album; it may not be easy to stomach - especially with today's trend in music. But for me, I was instantly and utterly in love. Perhaps you either love it or hate it (I regard this as a compliment!). But I think everyone should give it a listen.

Editorial Reviews:

After fumbling around with producer-from-hell Steve Albini on Rid of Me (1993) and signing with U2 manager Paul McGuinness, Polly Jean Harvey is ready to live up to her lethal early promise at last. With its growling bass tones, "Meet Ze Monsta" sets the stage early on as Harvey explores her feminine psyche with an intensity and raw power unheard since Patti Smith's heyday. Unlike the terminally inconsistent Smith, however, Harvey plots a brilliant course through slippery laments ("Working for the Man"), corrosive testifying ("Long Snake Moan"), and fuzz-toned menace ("Down by the Water"). Skeptics who think Harvey can't outgrow her art-punk base are advised to cue up the flamenco-inflected, string-caressed "Send His Love to Me." --Jeff Bateman
