PJ Harvey "When Under Ether Audio" [WindowsMedia Audio]

Welcome back PJ Harvey! It’s been three long years since Uh Huh Her, and while last year’s Peel Sessions was a treat, it hasn’t sated our appetite for new PJ. Fortunately her new album White Chalk is coming on October 2nd, but we have an early sneak peek for you.

“When Under Ether” takes her distinctive vocals and underpins them with delicate, mournful piano, rather than the angular, distorted guitars of her early work. The result is less loud, but certainly no less powerful, and showcases a more mature, self-assured PJ at the top of her game.
