PJ HARVEY - Let England Shake - Demos LP

Includes d/l code.

PJ's demos have been a genuinely interesting insight into her creative process, really peaking here. In particular, we're given a lot more insight into the samples and found sounds which really characterise the original album as a departure from, say, White Chalk.

The Istanbul (Not Constantinople) and Summertime Blues give the title track and The Words That Maketh Murder a new kind of hypnotism, and they now fit in alongside England in having an extra layer of backing track to accentuate the complexity and research that went into the messaging of the album.
