You can always expect the unexpected from PJ Harvey, yet you can be assured that you’ll get something haunting, thought provoking, terrifying, uplifting, depressing, beautiful and genuinely raw thrown into the creative blender. To call this a ‘cover’ doesn’t really begin to justify the way she’s taken control of not only the narrative but the very core of the song and rendered it virtually unrecognisable. That’s a good thing.

*Since this article was written I’ve come to discover many disturbing things about Cave, Harvey, their cohorts and practices. I can no longer listen to their music, and the knowledge of how these people and the wider entertainment industry operates has sickened me to the core. It’s very saddening to realise our heroes are scum.
