Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea auf Wikipedia (oder andere Quellen):

Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea is the fifth studio album by the English singer-songwriter PJ Harvey, released on 23 October 2000 by Island Records.[2] Recorded during March to April 2000, it contains themes of love that are tied into Harvey's affection for New York City.[3]

The album became the second major commercial success of her recording career, following her successful breakthrough To Bring You My Love (1995). Upon its release, the album received acclaim from most music critics and earned Harvey several accolades, including the 2001 Mercury Prize. It spent 17 weeks on the UK Albums Chart, and has been certified Platinum in the United Kingdom and Australia.[4][5] It is generally regarded as one of her best works.[6][7][8]

Background and music

In 1998, while shooting a film as an actress for Hal Hartley in New York, she felt inspired by the city and wrote several songs. Some of them ended up on the record.[9] In 1999, she chose to live there for nine months.[10] However, she insisted in interviews it was not "my New York album". Songs were also written while she was in London or at home in Dorset.[10] Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea was then recorded at Linford Manor in Milton Keynes in March – April 2000. The record was co-produced by Mick Harvey, Rob Ellis and Harvey, and mixed by Victor Van Vugt at the Fallout Shelter. The album featured a duet with Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke on the track "This Mess We're In", as well as backing vocals and keyboards from Yorke on the songs "One Line" and "Beautiful Feeling". She had met Yorke in 1992 and they had stayed in contact. She said: "I'd long been interested in the idea of somebody else singing a whole song on a record of mine, to have a very different dimension brought in by somebody else's voice. It adds so much dynamic within the record to have this other character coming in".[9]

She wanted the record to be more direct: "It's very different musically to the first couple of albums. It's very melodic, and it's much rounder and fuller. The earlier albums were very black and white in some sense, very extreme. Melodically, this is much more sophisticated than those records. It kind of feels like a combination of every album I've made so far rolled into one."[9] The songs were also a musical departure from her previous dark material. Harvey told Q in 2001, "I wanted everything to sound as beautiful as possible. Having experimented with some dreadful sounds on Is This Desire? and To Bring You My Love - where I was really looking for dark, unsettling, nauseous-making sounds - Stories from the City... was the reaction. I thought, No, I want absolute beauty. I want this album to sing and fly and be full of reverb and lush layers of melody. I want it to be my beautiful, sumptuous, lovely piece of work." She did, however, concede jokingly that it was only "pop according to PJ Harvey, which is probably as un-pop as you can get according to most people's standards."[11]

Pitchfork compared her voice on the lead single "Good Fortune" to that of the Pretenders's Chrissie Hynde,[12] while the Los Angeles Times observed: "Her singing often recalls Patti Smith and Siouxsie Sioux, artists who, like Harvey, project a sexuality derived from—yet never bound by—rock's male sensibilities."[13]

Release and commercial performance

The album was released on 24 October 2000, and promoted with a video for the lead single "Good Fortune", shot at night in streets of New York. It reached number 23 on the UK Albums Chart.[14] The album was certified Platinum in the UK, with sales over 300,000 copies. The album debuted at number 42 on the US Billboard 200 chart.[15] As of 2003, it has sold 357,000 copies in United States according to Nielsen SoundScan.[16] It has also been certified Gold in France, and has sold 1 million copies worldwide.[17]

The album was reissued on vinyl in February 2021 as part of a comprehensive reissue campaign of Harvey's back catalogue. A collection of unreleased demos, titled Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea – Demos, was also released.[18]

Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea received critical acclaim from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 88, based on 25 reviews.[6] NME hailed it as "a magnificent, life-affirming opus" by Harvey.[22] Robert Christgau called it "the best album of her career" in his review for Rolling Stone.[26]

Other critics rated it as only average. Spencer Owen of Pitchfork viewed the album as lacking in distinction, saying "the sheen gets slicker and her music gets duller".[12] The publication later, however, ranked it at number 124 in their "The Top 200 Albums of the 2000s" list in 2009.[28] In 2021, they included it in their "Rescored" list, saying that they wished to change their original score of 5.4 to an 8.4.[29]

Accolades

The album earned Harvey Brit Award nominations as Best British Female Artist for two years running, as well as two Grammy Award nominations for Best Rock Album and Best Female Rock Performance for the single "This Is Love".[30]

For the album, Harvey was nominated for the 2001 Mercury Prize for the third time (her previous nominations were for Rid of Me and To Bring You My Love). The award ceremony was held on 11 September 2001. Harvey was in Washington, D.C., on that day and witnessed the terrorist attacks on the Pentagon from her hotel room window. She was announced as the winner and accepted her award by phone, saying "It has been a very surreal day. All I can say is thank you very much, I am absolutely stunned."[31] The win made Harvey the first female solo artist to receive the Mercury Prize in the award's history.

The album was ranked number eight on Rolling Stone's list of the 50 Essential "Women in rock" Albums.[32] In 2002, Q magazine named Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea the Greatest Album of All-Time by a Female Artist.[33] In 2006, the album was chosen by Time as one of the 100 best albums of all time.[34] In 2009, Pitchfork named the album the 124th Top Album of the 2000s.[35] In 2009, NME also placed the album inside their Top 100 Greatest Albums of the Decade, at number six.[36] The album was also included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.[37] Rolling Stone named it the thirty-fifth best album of the decade.[38] In 2019, the album was ranked 19th on The Guardian's 100 Best Albums of the 21st Century list.[39] In the 2012 version of Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, it was ranked at number 431,[40] then in the 2020 update, it was moved up to number 313.[41]

PJ Harvey auf Wikipedia (oder andere Quellen):

PJ Harvey (2011)

Polly Jean „PJ“ Harvey MBE (* 9. Oktober 1969 in Bridport, Dorset) ist eine britische Alternative-Sängerin und Songwriterin, Lyrikerin und bildende Künstlerin.

Musikalische Laufbahn

PJ Harvey begann ihre musikalische Laufbahn in der Band Automatic Dlamini. Unter ihrem Namen PJ Harvey gründete sich später ein Trio. 1992 erschien das erste gemeinsame Album Dry beim Label Too Pure, mit dem die Band die Aufmerksamkeit der Independent-Szene auf sich zog.

1993 unterzeichnete Harvey einen Vertrag mit dem Plattenlabel Island Records. Anschließend veröffentlichte sie kurz hintereinander zwei Alben, Rid of Me in der originalen Besetzung und, nachdem sich Harvey entschlossen hatte, als Solokünstlerin weiterzumachen, das Album 4-Track Demos. Im selben Jahr tourte sie im Vorprogramm von U2.

1995 erschien ihr Album To Bring You My Love, das John Parish und Flood produzierten. Parish und Harvey hatten bereits in der Band Automatic Dlamini zusammengearbeitet. 1996 brachten der Multiinstrumentalist und Produzent und PJ Harvey gemeinsam Dance Hall at Louse Point heraus. Auf Nick Caves – mit dem sie in den 1990er Jahren eine Beziehung führte[1] – Album Murder Ballads (1996) ist PJ Harvey als Duettpartnerin bei Henry Lee vertreten. Ebenso ist sie auf Trickys Album Angels with Dirty Faces (1998) beim Song Broken Homes Gastsängerin.

Mit ihrem Nachfolgealbum Is This Desire? (1998) konnte sie weder bei den Kritikern noch bei den Plattenkäufern an den Erfolg von To Bring You My Love anknüpfen. 1999 schloss sich Harvey wieder mit ihren alten Bandkollegen zusammen. Gemeinsam nahmen sie in Dorset und New York City das Album Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea (2000) auf. Für dieses Album, auf dem auch Thom Yorke (Radiohead) als Gastsänger dabei ist, bekam PJ Harvey 2001 den Mercury Music Prize verliehen. Auf dem Album It’s a Wonderful Life (2001) von Sparklehorse ist PJ Harvey als Gastsängerin und Musikerin vertreten.

PJ Harvey (1998)

2003 wurde sie auf die Rancho De La Luna eingeladen, wo sie mit Josh Homme und anderen Künstlern zusammen an den Desert Sessions Volumes 9 & 10 gearbeitet hat. Im Mai 2004 erschien das Album Uh Huh Her, das stilistisch an Harveys frühere Alben anknüpft. Darüber hinaus war sie 2004 auch auf dem Album Bubblegum von Mark Lanegan vertreten. Hier lieferte sie die Stimme für die Songs Hit the City und Come to Me. 2004 arbeitete sie an dem Album Before the Poison von Marianne Faithfull mit, auf dem auch der Song No Child of Mine enthalten ist.

Mit dem im September 2007 erschienenen elegischen Album White Chalk hat Harvey auf den Einsatz der bis dahin meist dominierenden E-Gitarre verzichtet. Stattdessen ließ sie sich ausschließlich von akustischen Instrumenten – vorwiegend dem Klavier – begleiten und präsentierte sich stimmlich meist eine Tonlage höher.

Am 30. März 2009 wurde das Album A Woman a Man Walked By veröffentlicht, das Harvey erneut in Zusammenarbeit mit John Parish aufgenommen hat. Das achte Soloalbum der Britin, Let England Shake, erschien im Februar 2011. PJ Harvey bekam dafür zum zweiten Mal den Mercury Music Prize verliehen. Zahlreiche Magazine wählten Let England Shake zum Album des Jahres.[2]

Neben ihrem Beruf als Musikerin trat PJ Harvey als Maria Magdalena in Hal Hartleys Spielfilm Das Buch des Lebens auf. Außerdem studierte sie am Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London und arbeitet als Bildhauerin. Im Juni 2013 wurde sie für ihre Verdienste um die Musik mit dem MBE ausgezeichnet. Königin Elisabeth II. überreichte ihr den Orden am 10. Dezember 2013 im Buckingham Palace[3]. Im April 2016 erschien ihr neuntes Soloalbum The Hope Six Demolition Project.

2019 komponierte sie die gleichnamige Filmmusik für eine Theateradaption des Noël Coward Theatre unter der Regie von Ivo van Hove des Filmklassikers Alles über Eva, bei denen die Hauptdarstellerinnen Gillian Anderson und Lily James jeweils bei einem Lied als Gastsängerinnen zu hören sind.[4]

Einflüsse

Harvey nannte Jimi Hendrix,[5] Howlin’ Wolf,[5] Captain Beefheart,[5] The Rolling Stones,[6] Bob Dylan,[7] Pixies,[8] Patti Smith,[7] Neil Young,[7] Siouxsie Sioux,[9] Erik Satie[10] und Samuel Barber[10] als Einflüsse.

Lyrik und Dokumentarfilm

Im Oktober 2015 veröffentlichte Harvey ihren ersten Gedichtband The Hollow of the Hand, eine Zusammenarbeit mit dem Fotografen Seamus Murphy. Als Vorbereitung reisten Harvey und Murphy in den Kosovo, nach Afghanistan und nach Washington, D.C.[12] Ihre Erfahrungen wurden in Seamus Murphys Film A Dog Called Money dokumentiert, der 2019 in den britischen und deutschen Kinos zu sehen war.[13][14] Murphy hatte zuvor bereits zwölf Kurzfilme für Harveys Album Let England Shake verantwortet.

2022 veröffentlichte Harvey den Versroman Orlam, der im Dialekt ihrer Heimat Dorset geschrieben ist und an dem sie sechs Jahre arbeitete.[15]
