    It's a near-perfect piece of art, a level of accomplishment Harvey achieves with amazing consistency.

    Polly Harvey’s contradictory sure, but the complexities of her character and where she is right now are expressed with an honesty and intensity few artists can ever even begin to think about mustering.

    For an album almost four years in the making, it's frustratingly half-finished, like a series of preliminary sketches. [#27, p.142]

    A mediocre album from peej. She has tried to go back to the style of the first two albums but its just not convincing this time. Nothing like as good as her best (Dry, rid ofme, to bring you my love, stories...) but probably better than the similarly half-baked "Is this Desire?"… Expand
