[Black Hearted Love]

wow!

[Polly_Jean_Cave]

^ I know. Much better than the itunes essential artwork a few years back.

[Lilium]

Indeed, nice artwork.

[Pitifuljoy]

Gorgeous! They got a little carried away with Photoshop, and also GREEN, but I LOVE that picture. (When I think of PJ Harvey, I don't think "green". More like black, dark reds, earthy tones?

[freethemillhaven1]

This is probably a dumb question, but I will ask it anyway!

It the EP only available as a download?

[zemonsta]

Yes. Itunes compression only.

[freethemillhaven1]

Thanks; that is a shame.

Nice picture of Polly though.

[wangdangdoodle]

this is probably an even dumber question...these are session versions, like john peel type sessions? ? i haven't heard of i tunes session tracks before ..... i have indeed been living under a rock!

[Hell and High Water]

^ We'll have to see. The last iTunes session she did was for Uh Huh Her and was recorded live in the studio. It included the only "studio" version that exists of the title track.

[HowardF]

It's available now!

Just previewed all tracks. It sounds like it's going to be wonderful! Angelene is breathtaking, Down by the water sounds better here than on TBYML.

[Hell and High Water]

I just noticed that this thread was in the On the Run forum too, a bit of a dilemma, but since this isn't a live show, exactly, I merged the two here. Sorry if there's any confusion. I'm deleting duplicate posts, tidying up. tum-te-dum

[Hell and High Water]

YEP THIS IS LIVE
(In the studio)

I took a sneak listen to DBTW - is she performing it LIKE THIS NOW?!!
