P J Harvey

...and lest we forget the new PJ record that hit the streets recently ...is another...a little more strippped down than my favorites ..."to bring you my love" and "Dry" which were both really rocking, but had their moments of low key drama that really get you...
this new one 'Uh Huh Her' is a creeper... will take about 10 cycles before all the nuances hit ... the jacket photos are very worthwhile and candid...like a little history picturebook souvenir... man I like her open reflections and honest heart wrenching exhaust...
if you've never heard...this one won't be the one to grab you by the hips... but is another slice of her ...

I like good old PJ....
she's not my fav but I likes :yes:

I have one of her albums, the one with Thom Yorke on it :lol:

poobs - 6-14-2004 at 04:04 PM

Oi..I don't like female singers.. :no:

Well, Bjork is an exception to the rule of course..:D

happysmilely - 6-14-2004 at 08:57 PM

I don't like most Female singers, but they grow on me at times... :D

Bjork :yes:

nurzetrev - 6-14-2004 at 09:59 PM

...she is not a 'female singer'...I'll tell you that much...
more like a feminine slinger...and a fucking zinger of one at that...

prettyvacant - 6-15-2004 at 12:25 AM

I love female singers. Brody Dalle, Courtney Love, PJ Harvey, L7, Kim Deal...... the list goes on!! :D
PJ Harvey is playing London the day after my birthday but she's sold out!

I think she may have more dates though, YAY!!!:D:D

MichelleRene - 6-15-2004 at 06:53 AM

Yeah...I'm with you Poobs...I love Bjork and Gwen Stefani cause they're so incredibly hot and sing so sexy! But as far as the other ones listed, I'm not a big fan. The whole girl band thing is a little bit of a turn-off as well.......

nurzetrev - 6-15-2004 at 10:28 AM

:rolleyes:

seacaptain - 6-15-2004 at 12:20 PM

PJ Harvey kicks ass, I'm a big fan. She's so cool!

The new one is growing on me, it is rawer than her last couple of discs. But nowhere near as raw as her earliest stuff.

I don't like Gwen Stefani..She always sounds like she's whining..I don't mind some of their stuff, but yeah..And totally..Bands like The Donnas bug the hell out of me.. :rolleyes:

I did like Elastica, but that didn't last long..

nurzetrev - 6-15-2004 at 10:23 PM

you know who really suckerpunched me...was, Republica... they actually turned out to be a really good band... that single 'ready to go' kinda rocked it...don't really know who they are, but yeah... got this clear cd single of a few versions of that song and it's killer...
I have been searching the shelves hi and lo for PJ's 'DRY'...and I'm just beside myself... that stuff rocks... cool Albini rock production ...I am just jonesing for some '50 ft. queenie'...:yawn:

its funny, you hear a great riff/ intro and then the womans vocals kicks in, and it brings it all down a bit. PJ is a bit different, but i think her best days have gone now. She has so much stage presence though. Bit like James Hettfild, when they walk onto the stage, they seem to take it up with pure presence

Courtney Love :no:

(but that's personal :lol:

MichelleRene - 6-16-2004 at 05:44 AM

I forgot about Johnette Napolitano from Concrete Blonde...her voice is incredible! I love her! She's so deep and haunting......

ok...see if you like that then yr halfway there...
I saw concrete blonde the new years before last at the knitting factory in LA, actually sold tickets for the show, and I really liked them... she was really good and the guitar player is nowhere near being shabby...

and man that promo photo is excellent..., maybe delivered differently, but similarly, as far as deep and haunting I tell you some of these Polly records are that...she has her moods, but I don't think her 'best days' are behind...and she's really just one of the guys, but I imagine smells nice, has tits and a few more expressive nervous breakdowns...on tape...
I mean...though...not many guys would pen...
"lick my legs, I'm on fire, lick my legs, of desire"
:wow:....not to mention ..."let me ride, let me ride, let me ride on his grace for awhile..."
:o

woo! happy likes kim deal! i'm gonna c the pixies and i'm really excited. why don't u like courtney? its just loads of people seem to hate her but for no good reason, like they think she killed kurt ... blah blah blah!!!! :P

nurzetrev - 6-16-2004 at 11:35 AM

...well ...she helped...she comes off like such a nightmare... like tenfold in the way that I think the short dixie chick is a nightmare :yes:

... he probably woke up one day and was like :o i have substantiated a monsta!

HAHAHA, no not because she killed Kurt !
becauses she's a druged out crackhead ? :lol:

I don't know I just don't like her.

Kim is one of my most favorite girl voices ever :yes:

have fun seeing the Pixies !!!

MichelleRene - 6-17-2004 at 09:12 AM

yeah...Courtney is just so repulsive to me...When I saw her in the Sid & Nancy movie (one of Nancy's friends) she looks hideous and has such a trash mouth....she's not feminine by any means...all the surgery to look "human"...her poor daughter (gee, she's not going to have drug and mental problems in the future)...drug problems (oh her life is so awful, let's all feel sorry for her)...and she has a horrible voice that I'm sure is dubbed over and over and over with effects......I like to think of this little saying on occassions...and for Courtney.....it fits:

"Ugly bitches have stinky britches" :lol:

Evangeline - 6-17-2004 at 01:31 PM

I hate chick bands. The only good chick bands I know of are Cibo Matto, Rasputina, and Sleater Kinney.

Actually, I don't even normally like chicks, most girls bug the hell out of me. I am strictly-for-the-gentleman-lady.

prettyvacant - 6-19-2004 at 10:01 AM

i love courtney, i'm afraid! i think that so many people judge her and hate her. there's to much bad press surrounding her. i have the sid and nancy film, to be fair to courtney it was made in 1986, which was a while ago. she would have made a great nancy tho.
i can't help but love her, she's just really awesome. :D
i also love sleater kinney and the yeah yeah yeahs, which i missed offa my list. ooooo! and the slits!!! :P:D

poobs - 6-19-2004 at 10:43 AM

Courtney Love is almost as dirty as Dirty Ho..Maybe more..Who can tell, really? They both have those crackhead bruises on the legs and like to show off their white trash bodies..Ick..:ticking:

poobs - 6-19-2004 at 10:43 AM

Wasn't it the Slits that had them topless on their cover? Lame.. :rolleyes:

Again..A chick band trying way too hard..

Now the Go-Go's..They were fucking great.. :yes:

It's not about what's on the cover.. it's what's on the vinyl that counts

poobs - 6-19-2004 at 11:22 AM

Not to me..If a band needs to resort to that kind of crap, they're not worth my time.. :rolleyes:

[Edited on 6-19-2004 by poobs]

MichelleRene - 6-19-2004 at 11:30 AM

:lol:

....sex sells Poobs...we all know that.....

And Courtney still tries too hard to be like Nancy Spungeon....it's so passe'....................another rich kid dying for attention.....I don't know much about Courtney, but I'll bet she comes from a well-to-do family, doesn't she?...it's so obvious...I mean she had to be a teenager in 1986 when they filmed Sid & Nancy.

poobs - 6-19-2004 at 11:32 AM

Yeah..It's just annoying that it's always the women who are exploited..Especially when they are a band and do it to themselves..It's just hard to have respect, jew no?

MichelleRene - 6-19-2004 at 11:38 AM

Speaking of exploitation....I can't stand when I turn on MTV for a brief moment ( especially when I'm eating) and there's nasty women dancing around like they're humping the floor...........that grosses me out....why would you do that on national TV? Maybe they think they're sexy.....or they're high on crack...Stop the mating dance people!!!! Do it behind closed doors......

poobs - 6-19-2004 at 11:48 AM

And they're all so ghetto looking.. :yes:

I guess only ghetto girls WOULD hump the floor though.. :yes:

prettyvacant - 6-20-2004 at 09:50 AM

courtney wasn't form a "rich kid" background, she moved around and lived in a hippy comune for a time, so find shit out before u mouth off. i'll stick up for courtney!! :D anyway, if a guy band had a topless woman on the cover, the pixies for example, or a topless guy, would u hate their music? it doesn't matter wheather the artist has a vagina or a dick, its the music that counts! maaaaaaaaan!!!!! :lol:

poobs - 6-20-2004 at 04:00 PM

My annoyance is with chick bands that do that kind of stuff..Like I said, I feel like they're exploiting themselves and it's annoying.. :rolleyes:

And Courtney is nasty..:duh: :lol:

Evangeline - 6-20-2004 at 05:42 PM

But, Red Hot Chili Peppers exploit themselves, and they rock.

poobs - 6-20-2004 at 07:23 PM

I can't stand Red Hot Chili Peppers..And again..That is a male band..I'm talking about females..As I've said a few times, it's a man's world..Why should women bands give in to it?

Excuse me...why don't you go fuck-off with that attitude. Don't even post shit like that directed at me. Sticking up for a heroine addict who's $4 million in debt and is constantly overdosing on drugs, and you don't even know her personally. I think you need an attitude adjustment girlie.

nurzetrev - 6-21-2004 at 11:59 AM

:duh: :yes:

:wow:

...I don't really give a flying fff' about the woman of subject...but vacant...you are pretty 'wrong' ...the bitch was from a very well off background and that enabled her to 'live in a commune' without a job, chase façion and films, cop musuck and run around trying to be a "model" ...for what only she knows, ...lol... , shoot, Cobain and Grohl wrote 'live thru this' and yr deaf dumb and blind if you can't figure that out...

Yeah people...please don't post telling people to keep their mouths shut.....it's not very nice...and expect the reaction I left as a given....

also I thought I had heard she inherited money from her family many years back....doesn't her family own some sort of "BIG" business? And now she's crying about her inheritance from Kobain....please! Where's all the money she made off of her movies and music career? She should have thought about saving money for her child rather then spending it on drugs....I really feel sorry for her daughter....she's going to have a lot of problems in the future.

Michelle is coming at you with facts..Not opinions..Facts..And those facts cause her to think that Courtney Love is a poor excuse for a human being..

And she wasn't picking on you..She was calling you out for saying something completely rude and inappropriate aimed at her..

Then again, I'm not Michelle..I shouldn't be speaking for her..But, I agree with her 100%.. :yes:

I don't know...why are you the only one on the board with the attitude? You directed a comment to me directly....so, therefore you need to learn how to be held responsible for your words. Ok...better off..."find things out before you mouth off"....how is that? Better? I'll just throw your own words back at you...who gives a shit about Courtney Love's miserable life...I've never seen anyone on here post something as rude as you have.....you obviousley don't respect the opinions of others......

prettyvacant - 6-25-2004 at 12:58 PM

um, ooooooooooooook. u guys need to learn how to take it if your willing to hand it out. i couldn't give 2 shits if it was rude because hey, thats what i think. i directed the comment at you because you made the comment, who else am i supposed to make it at?
i am so sick of this now, you guys are ganging up on me cos i was "rude", which is a matter of opinion really, because in my opinion, you guys are being rude to me and i've done jack wrong.
but whatever, i've never been on such a spiteful thread, just because someone disagrees. all i did was put my opinion forward, which no one else agrees with so your all being nasty to me now, so u guys obviously don't respecyt my opinion either.

MichelleRene - 6-25-2004 at 01:01 PM

Get over it...We did.....:yawn:

No one is "ganging up" on you..Michelle responded to something you wrote that offended her..That's not "ganging up"..And just because we don't agree with your opinion, doesn't mean we were being nasty to you..We were being nasty to Courtney Love more than anything! I think you're being a bit over-sensitive to us thinking C.L. is a trashy ho.. :yes:

And you're right..You're entitled to your opinion..As are we..Respect it..
