MERCURY MUSIC PRIZE

Congratulations to Polly Jean Harvey. The majestic Let England Shake album deservedly wins the 2011 Mercury Music Prize making PJ the only act to win this award twice. Ten years ago Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea was considered a career peak for Polly.With this latest success she is again being heralded as reaching another of said peaks. The dark subject matter of war, death and blood lifted by the almost boyant music is a stroke of genius from PJ. Richly inventive, chilling and completely original.Expect another career peak to follow.
