Rated 10/10

Probably PJ Harvey's best album, along with "Let England Shake" (Maybe that one edges this out for me). This is an easy 5/5 for me; could listen to it on repeat. Best tracks: A Place Called Home, The Whores Hustle And The Hustlers Whore, We Float, but I don't think there's a weak track on it.

Rated 10/10

Thom Yorke on a pj Harvey album?!? Sign me up!

Rated 6/10

This was the PJ Harvey I was into. It's good, but I don't think it has the venomous bite of her earlier work. Also, Thom Yorke's cameos in this era just consisted of him repeating the lyrics (see also: El Presidente by Drugstore).

Rated 8/10

Alan lämmetä PJ Harveylle.

Rated 8/10

Bjork was always my main music crush, but the more I listen to PJ Harvey, the more I'm starting to fall for her.

Rated 8/10

This is always the record that I use to introduce people to the wonderful world of PJ Harvey. This is all a bit lighter, rockier and poppier than much of her other work.

Although it does a lit less to me than much of her other albums, it is not inferior in quality and always a pleasure to put this on.

Rated 8/10

Probably the least of her albums on this list but still excellent, 4.5*

Rated 4/10

Still walking the fine line between calm and chaotic, although maybe a bit more refined in places than prior PJ Harvey albums.

As I've said with other artists that have multiple albums on this list, I don't understand what makes this one substantially different from PJ Harvey's debut album, such that she merits double billing. It would make more sense to me to just have a shorter list, then continuing to fill it with multiple albums from the same artist that basically represent the same thing.

Rated 1/10

As much as I try to like PJ Harvey, I always end up getting annoyed with her music.

Rated 4/10
