Show All 28 Reviews- Really good sound and great record. Just annoyed that mine had water damaged label (was factory sealed). Not sure I can be bothered to return - bought in store at Fopp in London.
P.s. actually there’s some minor crackle a few seconds in B1, but apart from that my copy is sonically clean. - One of my favourite late-night albums to listen to and probably my favourite Poly Jean LP overall.
No issues noted on my system - Incredible album I was not familiar with. Happy I bought this vinyl. It's a great pressing to my ears, and the price is right (around $22 everywhere). Some say this is the #1 best PH Harvey. I'd say if it's not #1, it's #2 (for me).

I really like the music. But the pressing is underwhelming and frankly, not that good. No dynamics, not soundstage, poor resolution in treble and bass. Should have much more impact than this.
Maybe the CD is better. Or maybe the CD master was used for this vinyl release? Missed opportunity, it seems. Are there better, more exciting versions that hold your attention?- Copia perfecta buen sonido, también tengo las demos, este vinilo estaba antes en precios elevados, ahora es una buena compra, saludos.
- My copy has alot of static on the first half of Words That Maketh Murder and a bit on the track after that. Used anti stat brush multiple times. Other than that it’s perfect. Will return to Amazon to see if replacement fixes the issue.
- Great sound, quiet, clean. Got my copy from VinylTap, great seller, low shipping. Was surprised when I had to pay additional customs fee when it arrived(Croatia). Thanks, mr. Farage!
- Edited one year agoSounds wonderful. Apart from one of the reissues, I got all mine from Amazon Japan and every one has been perfect and has come with a download card. The only one that wasn’t visually perfect was Dry.

Polly Harvey is one of the most talented and inspiring singer / songwriters of her generation. Discuss.
