Our Take

PJ Harvey's "Is This Desire? - Demos" takes us on a wild ride through the raw, unfiltered creative process of the iconic musician. These stripped-down versions of the original tracks give us a glimpse into the inner workings of Harvey's mind, showcasing her undeniable talent and raw emotion.

From the haunting vocals on "The Garden" to the gritty guitar riffs on "Joy," each song on this album is a testament to Harvey's unique sound and unmatched creativity. The demos may lack the polished finish of the final recordings, but they make up for it with their raw passion and intensity.

Listening to "Is This Desire? - Demos" feels like eavesdropping on a private jam session between Harvey and her bandmates. The imperfect vocals and off-kilter rhythms only add to the album's charm, giving us a true sense of the creative process behind each track.

While some may prefer the polished sound of the original album, true Harvey fans will appreciate the opportunity to hear these demos in all their unfiltered glory. "Is This Desire? - Demos" is a must-listen for anyone who wants to delve deeper into the mind of one of music's most enigmatic talents. Harvey's signature blend of darkness and beauty shines through in every note, making this album a true gem for fans old and new. So, grab your headphones, dim the lights, and prepare to be mesmerised by PJ Harvey's raw, unbridled genius.
