Best Albums of 2011: PJ Harvey - Let England Shake

Let England Shake is PJ Harvey's tenth studio record. When this album came out in February this year, people started immediately loving it. This album has a strong anti-war message.

British artist lyrically focuses on England and its current situation on this record. She criticizes british political scene and England's involvement in war conflicts. I don't think that she could stress these issues better in any different way as she did on Let England Shake.

The album is so beautiful (Harvey started playing autoharp on this record) and sad at the same time. The melodies are simply great. There is no wonder that PJ Harvey won several awards for this record. It is probably the best "war album" of all times.

PJ Harvey is an extraordinary artist and she once again proved it on this album.
