And that's 10 for PJ Harvey! More than thirty years after her first studio album, the British singer, poet, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist is back with a new and 10th album. Entitled"I Inside the Old Year Dying", this record is due to be released on July 7, 2023.
As much as to say that the fans are in ebullition, impatient at the idea of discovering the successor of the excellent"The Hope Six Demolition Project", released in 2016. Nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album in 2017, this album had been hailed by both the press critics and the public thanks to tracks as powerful as " The Community of Hope ", " The Ministry of Social Affairs " or " The Wheel ".
This summer, the singer, who was named a Member of the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II in 2013, will return with her 10th album"I Inside the Old Year Dying" (Partisan Records), produced and mixed by her long-time collaborators John Parish and Flood.
" After many years of work, I am very happy to release this collection of new songs. It was a difficult album to make and it took time to find its strongest form, but it has finally become everything I hoped it would be," PJ Harvey said in a statement.
" On this album, PJ Harvey builds a sound universe located in a space between the opposites of life, and between recent history and the ancient past," said her friend John Parish.
Still a little patience before discovering what this new opus of PJ Harvey reserves. The artist has also unveiled on the web this Wednesday, April 26 a first single entitled " A Child's Question, August ". The track is accompanied by a clip directed by Steve Gullick.
We imagine that this new opus will be the opportunity for PJ Harvey to go back on the road soon during a new tour and to announce, we hope, a concert in Paris.
