The Garden, a PJ Harvey Discussion Site

Is her management taking selfies?

I do not like the new album or most of the last one. I don't like the way she sings these days or the lyrics. Oh well.
I also lost a lot of respect for her when I saw she is on Instagram. What's next, is she going to tweet?

Hehe, you are such a valuable source of information, I couldn't hate you!

How is it dramatic to get rid of an album I don't like in exchange for a smaller one that contains the sole portion of the album that I do like?

I am very disappointed. I think it is the worst thing she has ever done, by a considerable margin. I dislike the lyrics, the melodies, the phrasing, the arrangements, the sound of the recording, the artwork, & especially the male background vocals. I am selling it & buying The Wheel single because ...

Perfect amount for a nice little EP there.

“PJ Harvey is to music what Piers Morgan is to cable news.”

What does that even mean?

Another etching? So lame. Give us a damn b-side.

Credit to her for covering a song by someone she admits has always towered over her, but what a sacrilege. Not a good choice of song given the spare "arrangement" & the state of her voice. She could've pulled off something like "The Mystery of Love" or maybe even "I Think I'm a Mother" but not this.

I tried to remember which attracted me most before I knew what they contained.
I voted for Polly's lips on the copy machine. Rid of Me is a close second.
The back of 4-Track Demos should have been the front!

Great post, head's_bullet. I completely agree.

I will be disappointed if The Wheel is a picture disc without any b-sides. Picture discs tend to have poor sound.

Just heard it on Radio 6. Good song. Could easily fit on the last album.

I'm super excited about the album tracklist, though I was pretty sure River Anacostia was going to be the final track

I missed it too, but I'm listening to BBC6 now & the guys just said they would play it again in a little bit, so I will stay tuned.

Amazon Japan and Amazon US says The Wheel 7" Vinly will be released on 19 February. So maybe we don't have to wait until April Also February makes sense considering LES but not make sense considering tour dates

Chances are it will be one of the song titles, yeah?
Perhaps she’s going to be self-deprecating & call it “War Tourism.”
