Amongst the shoegazers, janglepoppers and the last strains of baggy, PJ Harvey were Britains shining bluespunk hope, showing that we had alternative music just as visceral, vital and loud as American grunge. With their first album, the threepiece stampeded their way into the ample praises of NME, Spin and Rolling Stone. But their 1993 major label debut stretched the limits of how violent, uncomfortable and darkly humorous a mainstream album could be; its titletrack the unlikely duality of unforgiving fury and unrepentant desire. This is New British Canon and this is the story of Rid Of Me. , PJHarvey, AlternativeRock, MusicDocumentary This video is sponsored by Skillshare. Factchecking by Serenity Autumn.
