Widely considered Harveys breakout album into the mainstream, To Bring You My Love is a dark, brooding album, which differed lyrically and musically from her previous releases. Recruiting Flood to help with the album, and the producers previous work with Nine Inch Nails and The Smashing Pumpkins really comes across in the sound of the album. Musically, Harvey sounds closer to heavy metal than alternative rock, and her use of voice manipulators adds to the mysterious aura around such songs as Down By The Water and Long Snake Moan. It's an essential part of the PJ Harvey discography.
