PJ Harvey – Evol

Born in Northstead, England, she says she grew up listening to blues and jazz.

The thick guitar tones characteristic of the ’90s and the groove that weaves between blues and jazz—her vocals feel world-weary, and you can sense how authentically they capture the atmosphere of the ’90s.

Horses In My Dreams

PJ Harvey, who has led the rock scene with her ever-shifting style.

The featured track appears near the end of her classic album “Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea,” released in October 2000.

Heavily informed by her time in New York, the album received high acclaim, including the Mercury Prize in 2001.

The sound—layering gently lapping, wave-like guitar repetitions with the image of a horse running through a dream—is wonderful.

Its introspective desire to pull oneself out of a painful place will gently keep you company on quiet nights when you want to calm your mind alone.

Immerse yourself in its dreamlike world and listen closely.

PJ Harvey – The Wind

Included on the 1998 album “Is This Desire?”.

Born in 1969.

A singer-songwriter from the UK.

The rhythm features a downtempo feel with a slightly distinctive development in the bass chords, a melody that sounds low and muffled, and high-pitched vocals intersecting with a murmured, rap-like delivery, all of which create a most mysterious atmosphere.

To Bring You My LovePJ Harvey5rank/position

To Bring You My Love

PJ Harvey—affectionately known as “Polly”—is a singer-songwriter whom Britain can proudly present to the world: a truly alternative artist.

Since her explosive debut as a trio in the early 1990s, she has never stayed within a single genre, and stands as a singular, almost miraculous figure who has also achieved commercial success.

In her early period in particular, she released many songs that bared the raw passions of womanhood and sent shivers down the spines of male listeners.

This time, I’d like to introduce the opening track from her third album, To Bring You My Love, released in 1995, which marked a new step forward for her as a solo artist.

It’s a track stripped of any beat-keeping instruments, built only on a repeating, noisy guitar backing, vibraphone, and organ, carrying a whiff of the blues.

Harvey’s voice rises as if from the depths of the earth—utterly overwhelming.

Be sure to pay attention to the lyrics as well, in which she wields a distinctive authorship that’s different from mere emotional outpouring.
