I Inside the Old Year Dying

by PJ Harvey

I Inside the Old Year Dying cover art

Rooted in the Dorset dialect and the artist's own published poetry, this record is a heavily atmospheric exploration of childhood memory and rural folklore. Co-produced with John Parish and Flood, the sparse arrangements rely on field recordings, archaic language, and improvised instrumental passages. It presents a haunting, impressionistic vision of English mythology disconnected from modernity.
