Sealed 2011 Original. PJ Harvey’s Newest Album Was Recorded In A 19th Century Church In Dorset, On A Cliff-Top Overlooking The Sea. It Was Created With A Cast Of Musicians Including Such Long-Standing Allies As Flood, John Parish And Mick Harvey. It Is The Eighth PJ Harvey Album, Following 2007’s Acclaimed White Chalk, And The Harvey/Parish Collaboration A Woman A Man Walked By. But What Is Remarkable About Let England Shake Is Bound Up With Its Music, Its Abiding Atmosphere, And In Particular, Its Words. If Harvey’s Past Work Might Seem To Draw On Direct Emotional Experience, This New Album Is Rather Different. Its Songs Center On Both Her Home Country, And Events Further Afield In Which It Has Embroiled Itself. The Lyrics Return, Time And Again, To The Matter Of War, The Fate Of The People Who Must Do The Fighting, And Events Separated By Whole Ages, From Afghanistan To Gallipoli.
