PJ Harvey shares her video for "The Community Of Hope"

18 March 2016, 10:17 | Written by Laurence Day

PJ Harvey has revealed her Seamus Murphy-directed visuals for latest single "The Community Of Hope".

Earlier this week Harvey drew ire from politicians running for a council seat in Washington D.C.'s Ward 7 neighbourhood - which is mentioned in unflattering terms during the song.

The track follows "The Wheel" in previewing upcoming LP The Hope Six Demolition Project, which is released 15 April via Island. It was recorded last year at Somerset House as part of an installation titled Recording In Progress.

Harvey has a packed summer ahead, including stops at UK festivals Glastonbury and Field Day.
