622. PJ harvey - stories from the city, stories from the sea
This is a near perfect album. I remeber reading an interview in which she states that she wanted to make a more polished sounding record - clean and crisp... and very much did, with songs clearly talking about New York and others evoking her homebase (which is near the sea I presume). The only reason why I am docking 0.2 points is because I expected more from the marriage between Thom Yorke and PJ - the song is lethargic and I am a sucker for boy/girl dueting which they never seem to really do.
9.8 out of 10

this one is probably in my top 15 albums of all time. glad you like it so much too.
gotta say i enjoy the thom yorke duets. i did however expect more when i heard he was on the album. over time though i came to love his parts on it.
the comment above was from me. fyi
Yeah I like how lyrically we get to hear Thom sing about things that are tangible or earth bound at least and not so obtuse or poetic.
