PJ Harvey - White Chalk
 

your thoughts?

i am really enjoying it so far. :)

amazing

of the many albums released by big names i haven't checked out yet and probably should.

My friend actually just send me Dry and Rid Of Me a few days ago and I quite enjoy them. I should check this out as well.

It's far from amazing, but I enjoy it in a non-amazing way.

its agreat album but dont expect to hear rid of me on it. its not that amazing!

ha ha I'm still amazed :D.

i need to listen to it a bit more, i've kind of gotten stuck into a Fleetwood Mac album recently.

I have listened to the white chalk since the vinyl came in about a month and a half ago. It will take me time to get into it. her high register on these songs puts me off a bit. It sounds great, the music and the album, but not yet hitting me where it hurts. I love PJ

i lost interest in her after the last two, ill listen to a friends copt prolly...

"Taken by, taken by the sky"
"oh mirror in the sky, what is love?"

man!! white chalk is so amazing. i applaud polly jean for taking such a step against what was expected of her. really awesome album.

curiously enough, i heard it pretty much at the same time i got a hold of the latest islaja jam. pj (kinda) goes weird finland!

yeah!

you merely said it was "amazing" while i stated that it is "so amazing".

you won this round.... :D
I wanna see her liveeee buaaaaaaah....

i have seen her live!

KO.

great news from a few days ago:

Polly To Hit The Studio With John Parish
Polly is due to enter the studio with John Parish later this month to commence work on a collaborative album, a follow-up to their 1996 collaboration on Dance Hall At Louse Point.

They will be joined in studio by long-time cohort, Eric Drew Feldman, Carla Azar from Autolux and Giovanni Ferrario. The studio session will take place ahead of Polly’s forthcoming tour of New Zealand & Australia and confirmed show in Rome on March 9th which are in support of her current album White Chalk.

The, yet to be titled, album is expected out later this year.


p.s. she will play in Rome in march, but prices are in a 35-65 range. And I'm talkin' Euros.... aaaaand, that's the only italian date.

i really don't know what to expect from her anymore, that's pretty much the best way to approach her work.

i wasn't aware how popular she has become, 65 euros seats for pj harvey? wow!

The "problem" is that she plays in this fancy-ultra-modern auditorium,


designed by Renzo Piano...
which is a GREAT thing for acoustic and sound quality, but prices are quite high in the main halls, and I don't want to see her from a football field-like distance.... Branca in february will play in the "little hall" for 12 euros... :D
