The Hope Six Demolition Project – Demos auf Wikipedia (oder andere Quellen):
The Hope Six Demolition Project is the ninth studio album by English singer-songwriter and musician PJ Harvey,[3] released on 15 April 2016 on Island Records. The album is Harvey's first since her acclaimed Mercury Prize-winning album Let England Shake, released in 2011.[4]
The record's demo collection was released on March 11, 2022 to conclude Harvey's chronological re-release campaign of vinyl reissues and demo session offerings beginning in 2020.
At the 59th Annual Grammy Awards, the album was nominated for Best Alternative Music Album, her fourth nomination in that category and seventh nomination overall.[5]
The album's title is a reference to the HOPE VI projects in the United States, "where run-down public housing in areas with high crime rates has been demolished to make room for better housing, but with the effect that many previous residents could no longer afford to live there, leading to claims of social cleansing".[6] The HOPE VI program is directly referenced in the album's opening track and second single, "The Community of Hope". The title is inspired by Harvey's trip to Washington D.C. with photographer/filmmaker Seamus Murphy where she was given a tour by Paul Schwartzman of The Washington Post,[7] who directly influenced some of the lyrics on the song.[8] Upon its release, the song drew criticism directly from politicians running for the council seat in Ward 7 in Washington, D.C.[9]
Background and development
Harvey wrote the songs for The Hope Six Demolition Project as well as her poetry book The Hollow of the Hand[10] during her travels to Kosovo, Afghanistan and Washington D.C. with photographer/filmmaker Seamus Murphy between 2011 and 2014.[4]
Recording
The album was created in sessions open to the public as part of an art installation at Somerset House in London called Recording in Progress. The sessions were forty-five minutes each in length and lasted for a month, beginning on 16 January 2015 and concluding on 14 February.[1] Viewers could see Harvey create the album through one-way glass with producers Flood and John Parish, both of whom had worked on Harvey's previous album Let England Shake.[11]
Mobile phones and devices with recording capabilities were confiscated before entering and viewers were led to a basement-level room. During the first viewing, she was working on a song called "Near the Memorials to Vietnam and Lincoln", which is featured on the album.[12] Harvey was reportedly playing violin, harmonica and hurdy-gurdy.[13] It was also reported that she was joined by musicians Terry Edwards and James Johnston and that Seamus Murphy was filming the entire session.[14]
Release
Both of the album's singles were premiered on BBC Radio 6 Music, each on the day before its release. "The Wheel" was premiered on Steve Lamacq's show on 21 January 2016. Lamacq also revealed the album's release date to be 15 April 2016.[15] "The Community of Hope" was premiered on Shaun Keaveny's show on 10 March 2016.[16] "The Orange Monkey" was released as the album's third single on 7 April 2016.[17]
The music video for "The Wheel" was released on 1 February 2016, and that for "The Community of Hope" on 18 March 2016. Both videos were directed by Seamus Murphy.

The Hope Six Demolition Project received generally positive reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 79, based on 34 reviews.[19]
Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune praised the album, writing that it "builds masterfully to a powerful, closing one-two punch".[21] Vice journalist Robert Christgau was more reserved in his praise, briefly describing the record as "politics according to Polly, meaning keen observation, analytic detachment, and paradoxically forgiving melodies scarred again and again by baked-in pessimism and misanthropy".[29] The album was named Mojo's ninth-best album of 2016[30] and Uncut's sixth-best album of 2016.[31]
Other responses
Upon its release, the opening track and second single, "The Community of Hope", drew criticism directly from politicians running for the council seat in Ward 7 in Washington, D.C., with former DC Mayor Vincent C. Gray saying "I will not dignify this inane composition with a response", and his campaign treasurer Chuck Thies insulting Harvey with "PJ Harvey is to music what Piers Morgan is to cable news."[9] Grant Thompson, a pastor and former Congressional staffer running for the Ward 7 council seat, stated that Harvey "needs to see more of the city".[9]
At times, The Hope Six Demolition Project's lyrical content was criticized for being political without literally proposing government policy. Laura Snapes of Pitchfork asked, "By pointing out the problems in these three communities, but proposing no solutions, is she (Harvey) just as responsible for their desertion as the global powers that came before her?"[25]

PJ Harvey auf Wikipedia (oder andere Quellen):
Polly Jean „PJ“ Harvey MBE (* 9. Oktober 1969 in Bridport, Dorset) ist eine britische Alternative-Sängerin und Songwriterin.
Musikalische Laufbahn
PJ Harvey begann ihre musikalische Laufbahn in der Band Automatic Dlamini. Unter ihrem Namen PJ Harvey gründete sich später ein Trio. 1992 erschien das erste gemeinsame Album Dry beim Label Too Pure, mit dem die Band die Aufmerksamkeit der Independent-Szene auf sich zog.
1993 unterzeichnete Harvey einen Vertrag mit dem Plattenlabel Island Records. Anschließend veröffentlichte sie kurz hintereinander zwei Alben, Rid of Me in der originalen Besetzung und, nachdem sich Harvey entschlossen hatte, als Solokünstlerin weiterzumachen, das Album 4-Track Demos. Im selben Jahr tourte sie im Vorprogramm von U2.
1995 erschien ihr Album To Bring You My Love, das John Parish und Flood produzierten. Parish und Harvey hatten bereits in der Band Automatic Dlamini zusammengearbeitet. 1996 brachten der Multiinstrumentalist und Produzent und PJ Harvey gemeinsam Dance Hall at Louse Point heraus. Auf Nick Caves – mit dem sie in den 1990er Jahren eine Beziehung führte[1] – Album Murder Ballads (1996) ist PJ Harvey als Duettpartnerin bei Henry Lee vertreten. Ebenso ist sie auf Trickys Album Angels with Dirty Faces (1998) beim Song Broken Homes Gastsängerin.
Mit ihrem Nachfolgealbum Is This Desire? (1998) konnte sie weder bei den Kritikern noch bei den Plattenkäufern an den Erfolg von To Bring You My Love anknüpfen. 1999 schloss sich Harvey wieder mit ihren alten Bandkollegen zusammen. Gemeinsam nahmen sie in Dorset und New York City das Album Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea (2000) auf. Für dieses Album, auf dem auch Thom Yorke (Radiohead) als Gastsänger dabei ist, bekam PJ Harvey 2001 den Mercury Music Prize verliehen. Auf dem Album It’s a Wonderful Life (2001) von Sparklehorse ist PJ Harvey als Gastsängerin und Musikerin vertreten.
2003 wurde sie auf die Rancho De La Luna eingeladen, wo sie mit Josh Homme und anderen Künstlern zusammen an den Desert Sessions Volumes 9 & 10 gearbeitet hat. Im Mai 2004 erschien das Album Uh Huh Her, das stilistisch an Harveys frühere Alben anknüpft. Darüber hinaus war sie 2004 auch auf dem Album Bubblegum von Mark Lanegan vertreten. Hier lieferte sie die Stimme für die Songs Hit the City und Come to Me. 2005 arbeitete sie an dem Album Before the Poison von Marianne Faithfull mit, auf dem auch der Song No Child of Mine enthalten ist.
Mit dem im September 2007 erschienenen elegischen Album White Chalk hat Harvey auf den Einsatz der bis dahin meist dominierenden E-Gitarre verzichtet. Stattdessen ließ sie sich ausschließlich von akustischen Instrumenten – vorwiegend dem Klavier – begleiten und präsentierte sich stimmlich meist eine Tonlage höher.
Am 30. März 2009 wurde das Album A Woman a Man Walked By veröffentlicht, das Harvey erneut in Zusammenarbeit mit John Parish aufgenommen hat. Das achte Soloalbum der Britin, Let England Shake, erschien im Februar 2011. PJ Harvey bekam dafür zum zweiten Mal den Mercury Music Prize verliehen. Zahlreiche Magazine wählten Let England Shake zum Album des Jahres.[2]
Neben ihrem Beruf als Musikerin trat PJ Harvey als Maria Magdalena in Hal Hartleys Spielfilm Das Buch des Lebens auf. Außerdem studierte sie am Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London und arbeitet als Bildhauerin. Im Juni 2013 wurde sie für ihre Verdienste um die Musik mit dem MBE ausgezeichnet. Königin Elisabeth II. überreichte ihr den Orden am 10. Dezember 2013 im Buckingham Palace[3]. Im April 2016 erschien ihr neuntes Soloalbum The Hope Six Demolition Project.
2019 komponierte sie die gleichnamige Filmmusik für eine Theateradaption des Noël Coward Theatre unter der Regie von Ivo van Hove des Filmklassikers Alles über Eva, bei denen die Hauptdarstellerinnen Gillian Anderson und Lily James jeweils bei einem Lied als Gastsängerinnen zu hören sind.[4]
Einflüsse
Harvey nannte Jimi Hendrix,[5] Howlin' Wolf,[5] Captain Beefheart,[5] Rolling Stones,[6] Bob Dylan,[7] Pixies,[8] Patti Smith,[7] Neil Young,[7] Siouxsie Sioux,[9] Erik Satie,[10] und Samuel Barber,[10] als Einflüsse.

Lyrik und Dokumentarfilm
Im Oktober 2015 veröffentlichte Harvey ihren ersten Gedichtband The Hollow of the Hand, eine Zusammenarbeit mit dem Fotografen Seamus Murphy. Als Vorbereitung reisten Harvey und Murphy in den Kosovo, nach Afghanistan und nach Washington, D.C.[13] Ihre Erfahrungen wurden in Seamus Murphys Film A Dog Called Money dokumentiert, der 2019 in den britischen und deutschen Kinos zu sehen war.[14][15] Murphy hatte zuvor bereits zwölf Kurzfilme für Harveys Album Let England Shake verantwortet.
2022 veröffentlichte Harvey den Versroman Orlam, der im Dialekt ihrer Heimat Dorset geschrieben ist und an dem sie sechs Jahre arbeitete.[16]
