Lifetime of Listening #40 - 2011 - PJ Harvey "Let England Shake" - 52 Albums/Years/Weeks

2011, and a serious record from a serious artist. Themes of nationhood, imperialism, patriotism...the plight of those caught up in violent conflict, and how war has shaped our world, from the past right up to the present day. The album of the year for many, and rightly so. As ever, expect mentions for a few other great alt/indie LPs from this year, alongside some personal reflections.
