PJ Harvey is back on form with her latest album, her eighth to date. This is very much a politically inspired work, and the state of politics in the UK in particular. There is not a bad track on this disc, no filler, all very good songs. All catchy and poignant, from the horn pipe in The Glorious Land, the to the brutal imagery in The Words That Maketh Murder; “I’ve seen soldiers fall like lumps of meat… arms and legs in the trees… “. I can see PJ earning several awards for this work, highly recommended.
