PJ HARVEY - Consequence Of Sound review MOST DRAMATIC CALL TO ARMS After featuring politically outspoken, legendary songwriter Patti Smith last year, Primavera doubled down and found another brilliant female musician cut from similar cloth: PJ Harvey. The alt rock mainstay was supporting the recently released Hope Six Demolition Project, a concept album driven by observing poverty and struggle in other countries and then holding up a mirror to that process of observation. A lot of that time is spent on America, so it’s no surprise that she entered the stage by leading a marching band, saxophone strapped to her neck. She then proceeded to produce what was perhaps the most theatrical and conceptually unified set of the festival, tying songs together with cavalry horns, orchestral flourishes, dramatic movements, and intense stares into the audience. The tight focus and black-and-white shots displayed on the big screens amped that feeling, as well as the large, industrial concrete facade behind the band. The set relied largely on Hope Six, though made room for classic favorites like “50 Ft. Queenie”, which was delivered with raw tones and aggressive dancing. But, for the most part, Harvey came across as stony, impenetrable, yet strong. The set then ended with the same theatrical temperament with which it began, the players introduced and then the final note fading away into black. –Lior Phillips |

PJ Harvey - Gigwise review Returning to the world stage for the first time in four years, PJ Harvey was undoubtedly one of the top talking points and most hyped acts in the run up to Primavera Sound 2016. One of the most critically-adored artists of our time, forever shifting shape and changing the game, she's also the only person to win the Mercury Prize twice. She proved that she was still every bit on top of her game with the lush but provocative new record Hope Six Demolition Project earlier this year, so all were eager to see where her latest evolution would take her live show. Flanked by a nine-piece band that included long-time collaborators John Parish, Mick Harvey, and Jean-Marc Butty, along with friends friends Alain Johannes, Terry Edwards, and James Johnston, she stands resplendent in black to deliver a performance with the grace to stand up against her legacy and reputation. Her set consists of pretty much the entirety of her latest record, which is a bold move for such a high profile festival set, but that acts only as a testament to how essential her music is. Her work is always 'complete', and to ignore so much of her newest work would do it a terrible disservice. True, a couple of cuts from Stories From The City wouldn't have gone amiss, but the Tom Waits-esque horror soundtrack of opener 'Chain Of Keys', the new Polly Jean classic of 'The Community Of Hope', and the prog-rock tapestry of 'The Wheel' are such stand-outs of the evening alone, that you realise you'd ever want Harvey as an artist living very much in the now and forever looking forwards, rather than a touring pantomime legacy act, merely rolling out the hits. The truth goes marching on, and long may it continue to do so. |

http://www.musicomh.com/reviews/live/pr ... sound-2016 PJ Harvey’s The Hope Six Demolition Project has come through many different media so far: recording sessions open to the public, a poetry book and a series of readings and Seamus Murphy’s photographic documents and videos. How will the record translate on the festival stage? When she marches in accompanied by her band on Chain Of Keys, playing her sax, it’s immediately clear how she’s reintroducing more theatrical elements to her performances. Whilst the live sets for Let England Shake were impeccable, but felt a bit restrained, Polly’s now returning with an incredibly charismatic stage persona: no longer static behind her autoharp, she launches herself in interpretative dances and engages with the audience at every occasion with gestures and quizzical expressions. As is now tradition for Polly, her set is predominantly filled with songs off the new record, some of which instantly catchy (The Wheel, Community Of Hope), others visibly more difficult for the audience to digest (Dollar, Dollar). But she still manages at least one major surprise – the last thing you’d expect from Polly after her ‘political turn’ is a raw version of 50ft Queenie, but that’s exactly what happens and the crowd can’t get enough. |

http://www.contactmusic.com/primavera-s ... ive-review It hits 10.30pm, and PJ Harvey is going to be hitting the stage any moment. An all-encompassing drumbeat commands my complete attention as a band with PJ Harvey tucked in the middle walk in formation onto stage. As a fan of PJ Harvey since I was a child and never seeing any live material of her before, I was incredibly nervous as to what to expect from her live. However, with an extended introduction into the first track 'Chain of Keys', I was immediately transfixed with her stage presence as she slowly walked forward, blaring her saxophone in a single note that wailed like an alarm before coming to the centre mic and singing with dominance and grace. Upon reflection, PJ Harvey's stage presence and singular performance was the most actualised of all the acts we came across over the weekend. Her relatively small stature felt gargantuan in her command and authoritative nature on stage. The chords for the title track of 'Let England Shake' arrive to a greatly appreciative crowd and the lights brighten up into a stark white. Harvey uses the shadows on stage to morph into a new character and floats across the stage like a spectre, all while foreshadowing the downfall of Britain. It's a sensational performance which continues with the war-trodden hit 'The Words That Maketh Murder'. After an extended applause, the band collect themselves for 'The Glorious Land' with its haunting use of bugle trumpets which open and interrupt the track at certain points, making it a stark and formidable moment in her performance. Towards the end of their set, it breaks into a shrill and intense take on '50ft Queenie' which sets pockets of die hard fans around the crowd into a state of hysteria. It ends with Harvey revealing a slight grin as she takes a deep breath and sings the line "I lost my heart..." which is instantly roared at. Her hit 'Down By The Water' is moody and intense, the shrill violins build up a tension which commands you to watch her every move. She carries on this mood with 'To Bring You My Love' and ends her set with 'River Anacostia'. The final headliner of the festival gracefully bows alongside her band and exits the stage. Although she may not the best overall act of the weekend, PJ Harvey is undoubtedly the greatest solo performance of Primavera Sound I have the chance to witness. PJ Harvey absolutely dominated. Her professionalism and enigmatic stage presence was in a league of its own, and is a testament as to why she is one of the most important solo artists to come out of England. An utterly entrancing performance. |
