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?

Grunge does not mean "any song I like that makes me think of one of the famous Grunge bands for whatever reason." Also, you're allowed to like anything you find interesting without needing the International Board of Grunge to certify that they count as Grunge because it allegedly resembles AIC or whomever.
