Description
A late tram ride across Melbourne suits these stripped-back versions. PJ Harvey’s Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea - Demos (LP) pulls the gloss off those 2000 songs and leaves you with voice, guitar, and intent. Good Fortune becomes a nervy postcard, her phrasing right up front and conversational. This Mess We’re In, without the duet spotlight, turns private and shows how sturdy the melody always was. We Float lands gently, every chord measured while the lyric does the heavy lifting.
Pressing-wise, there’s more space around her vocal and imaging feels closer to the mic stand, so the small creaks and string noise linger in a good way. Sequence mirrors the original, so you get a parallel walk through the city and the sea, only closer to the writing desk. File it beside Nick Cave when you want the bones of the song rather than the skyline.
If you’d rather order online, you can buy PJ Harvey records online with us.
Long-time fans will appreciate the context these demos bring, and newcomers get a clear line into the craft before the studio lights came on. It’s an honest, well-curated set that rewards quiet volume and close attention.
Buy online now with fast shipping across Australia, or pick it up in our Preston record store.
