PJ Harvey
The hope six demolition project
PJ’s previous album involved her travelling to Afghanistan, Kosovo and the grimmer parts of Washington DC in the company of film-maker and photographer Seamus Murphy, the better to record the effects of war and poverty. The field trips have thus far spawned a book of poetry and photographs called The Hollow of the Hand, and an open recording session-cum-art installation, during which the public were invited to stand behind a one-way glass and watch Harvey and her band making the album in a specially constructed studio in London’s Somerset House. There is a documentary film to follow.(from the guardian)

1.The community of hope(2:23)(FCC shithole)mid tempo rock song about America
2.The ministry of defense (4:11)darker slower PJ plus a chorus singing about war
