Previously Unreleased Collection of Demos from 1998's Is This Desire? Mastered by Jason Mitchell at Loud Mastering Under the Guidance of Longtime PJ Harvey Collaborator John Parish!
Collection of unreleased demos of every track written for the fourth PJ Harvey studio album Is This Desire?, including early versions of "A Perfect Day Elise," "The Wind" and "Angelene." Audio has been mastered by Jason Mitchell at Loud Mastering under the guidance of longtime PJ Harvey collaborator John Parish. Features brand new artwork with previously unseen photos by Maria Mochnacz. 180g vinyl LP pressing with full color outer sleeve and printed inner sleeve.
Once again co-produced with Flood, PJ Harvey's fourth studio album Is This Desire? followed-up the highly decorated To Bring You My Love. Recorded in London and Dorset between 1997 and 1998 while withdrawing from the celebrity that came as a by-product of her first three critically acclaimed albums, the cerebral 12-song set reflects that isolation with slow building soundscapes and hushed dynamics on singles like "A Perfect Day Elise" and "The Wind." It attracted plaudits on both sides of the Atlantic and garnered nominations for The Brits and The Grammy Awards.
