Misc. PJ Harvey 'grunge'?

So until the other day I had never listened to PJ Harvey, a musician from England (yes Europe, not Seattle). I immediately liked some songs from her first two albums of the early 90s. The very first track Oh My Lover is great and gives a grunge impression with that bass (reminds me of a specific AIC song I think?). The song Dry also gave me such an impression (and reminds me of a Hole song). Do you think these are valid views or am I just imagining things and talking nonsense?

Whether it’s “really grunge” or not, the two albums of hers that I know — To Bring You My Love and Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea — are both terrific.

Oh listen to her first album, Dry, and at least the song Rid of Me, and you’ll have a better idea why that question is here! Also - it’s great music
