^yep, I read so months ago from another user over unforumzed, halo eighteen
http://www.unforumzed.com/showthread.ph ... uot/page58


and Im going to quote myself :grin:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=57&start=630
I remembre that in the press report it told about a final film, even in the spinner video itw she talked 'bout it, that Seamus make short films to go with each song for the record
& then later on (he want) to make a long former film, as a response of Harvey's work.


PRESS RELEASE:

PJ Harvey’s new 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’.

Such are the bare facts. 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 centre 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. The album they make up is not a work of protest, nor of strait-laced social or
political comment. It brims with the mystery and magnetism in which she excels. But her lyric-writing in
particular has arrived at a new, breathtaking place, in which the human aspects of history are pushed to
the foreground. Put simply, not many people make records like this.

Marketing Notes:
• Music videos have been made for each track on the album. They will be released periodically online throughout the album’s campaign
• PJ will play a string of shows in Europe- Fly away contests will be set up in the US for major market European shows.
• An EPK will be launched prior to the albums release on PJ Harvey’s web properties
• A Banner ad campaign promoting Let England Shake will be run on Stereogum, Hype Machine, Brooklyn Vegan,
Gorilla Vs. Bear, and RCRD LBL
• Print ads will run in Filter, Fader, SUP and more
• The album will be serviced to a list of over 400 Film/TV music supervisors
• Advance copies of the album have been serviced to over 300 media outlets, both online and print
• PJ Harvey will be playing a string of shows throughout the US in major markets surrounding her confirmed
Coachella appearance
• Let England Shake will be serviced to Non-Comm, College, and Specialty Radio formats around street date

Thanks for posting the EPK link. Its a good interview. I love the bit about mistakes and the boys knowing Polly Language. I'd also not thought of the Pogues for ages until she mentioned them here. I'd forgotten about their song The Band Played Waltzing Mathilda about Gallipoli which now fits quite well with LES. I need to go dig out their record now!

Ordering from the UK or Overseas is to pricey, going to wait for the US release.
