    PJ Harvey Covering Red Right Hand Is As Beautifully Fucked Up As You’d Expect

    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…

    Nick Cave’s Darkest Hour Comes To Light

    Darkness descends, floating upon strings stroked by the grim reaper himself. What could be the sound of tortured crows emanates throughout with a regularity you plead to cease, though when they inevitably do, a sense of even more disconnect invites them back to provide an uneasy comfort. More haunted than haunting. Solemnity dominates. The pain so evident it makes you want…
