Too neat for my taste
Joaquin De Quesada Seminario | 05/22/2009
(3 out of 5 stars)

"being a PJ Harvey hard die fan. This is my least favorite album of hers. The music is fine. but just not as courageus and breathtaking as her previous work. The album starts off and finishes without a moment where you would stop and really listen to the music. Nothing stands out of it. Is just pure and bland almost popish music where the lyrics are just predictable love anthems.

It's not a bad album don't get me wrong. If you like well done pop music you will most likely enjoy it. It's just too easy listening for any previous PJ Harvey fan.

When she was asked about this particular one she just said it is an album where she tried to make everything beautiful. And believe me that's what she got. pure and plain ''beautiful tunes''. But maybe just too beautiful. If you know what i mean. Try picking up Rid of me, to bring you my love or the innovative is this desire?. And you'll get a glimpse of why this simply isn't her. at least not her musical essence."
Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea
Bjorn Viberg | European Union | 09/25/2009
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea being Harvey's 2000 release and was her second major commercial success since her 3rd album To Bring you My Love. The sound is a mixture of indie and alternative rock and has a very rough edge to the lyrics and the sound. Harvey writes intersting and thought worthy lyrics that makes you cling to ever word she sings. The booklet has a very strange photograph on the front. The album was met very positive reviews when it was released and Q, Robert Christgau and Allmusic all gave it high marks. 4/5."
