Let me first begin by stating that I like PJ Harvey. I like concept albums. I like history. And I like weird, plinky music. If these things are not true of you, you may not share my enthusiasm for Let England Shake. Polly Jean has created a magical album that follows the theme of war, wriggling its way under your skin and into your heart. Critics are going crazy for her experimental music, powerful lyrics and Bjork-esque high-pitched wail. It’s sure to be a festival and awards favourite, but is certainly not for everyone. Give it a listen, and then give it another.
