PJ Harvey says most modern music is dull

PJ Harvey has a general disregard for today's popular music.

The 41-year-old is a music veteran with a total of eight studio albums in her catalogue. The singer, who is famed for her eclectic tastes and varied looks, is uninterested by today's chart and contemporary music.

'Not for a lack of knowing it exists, but because I find nothing that interests me,' she said when asked why she doesn't keep up with recent records.

' listen to older artists, The Doors and things that excite me, and I find very little that excites me that's happening today.'

PJ says the music today is bland and lacks any deep undertones.

The songstress insists that her view may completely differ to everybody else's, but she just doesn't feel a connection to the music in the charts today.

'[It's] largely unoriginal. I think mostly that's the reason, because I've already heard it a hundred times better before, and it doesn't speak to my soul,' she said in an interview with NME magazine.

'Everybody is different in that way. I'm not saying there isn't great work existing now ' for many people there is ' but for my own personal taste there's nothing that grabs me and makes me want to go out and do more investigation into this music.'
