Our Take

PJ Harvey's "White Chalk" is like a musical journey through the foggy moors of England, with Harvey herself as our eerie tour guide. The album is a departure from her earlier work, swapping out the gritty guitars for delicate piano melodies and haunting vocals.

Harvey's ethereal voice floats over sparse instrumentation, creating a sense of intimacy that is both captivating and unnerving. The album has a ghostly quality to it, as if each song is echoing through the halls of a long-abandoned manor.

Tracks like "The Devil" and "Grow Grow Grow" showcase Harvey's storytelling prowess, painting vivid pictures of darkness and despair. The album is a masterclass in mood and atmosphere, with each song building on the tension of the last.

"White Chalk" may not be everyone's cup of tea, but for those willing to delve into its unsettling beauty, it is a truly unforgettable experience. PJ Harvey has once again proven herself to be a fearless innovator in the world of alternative music, and "White Chalk" is a haunting testament to her talent. So sit back, close your eyes, and let PJ Harvey take you on a chilling musical journey you won't soon forget.
