PJ Harvey overrated ? She's just a great artist wich releases each time a good, great or an excellent record.
She's not in every album's critic list or a mainstream artist.
So the little recognition that she earned after 2 decades of a high quality music carrier is well deserved. so stop the none sense :evil:

But how can anyone say she isn't slightly over-rated?

These artists are all lower than her on our charts:

Elliott Smith & Belle & Sebastian are right under her.
Daft Punk
Talk Talk
Charles Mingus
LCD Soundsystem
Roxy Music
Outkast
Can
The Shins
Wu-Tang Clan
Jay-Z
Godspeed! You

... etc...


The difference between her and those other artists, except maybe roxy music, is that she has released at least 6 highly regarded albums as opposed to the one to three essential albums of all of these other artists. she can boast both quality and quantity in her career as opposed to these other artists.

6?!?!? ๐Ÿ˜ฒ What 6 are these? The only one I've ever seen regarded as a classic is 'Rid Of Me'.

LCD Soundsystem, Daft Punk & Wu-Tang don't have the biggest discographies ever...But they've all released better work than PJ.

I'm just going to stop ๐Ÿ˜ I like PJ Harvey a bit, but I think she's over-rated. That's my opinion. Done & done.

In my eyes, Rid of Me will always be her best album. She has many great albums, but Rid of Me stands head and shoulders about the rest.

I saw a Kate Bush video earlier, and it really reminded me of PJ Harvey. Anyone else think that's a valid 'across the ages' comparison ?
