PJ Harvey Announces Tour, Shares Video for New Song “I Inside the Old I Dying”: Watch 

She’s set dates on the road behind her new album I Inside the Old Year Dying

PJ Harvey has shared the new song “I Inside the Old I Dying” from her forthcoming album I Inside the Old Year Dying. It arrives with a new animated video directed by Cristóbal León and Joaquín Cociña, who describe the visual as “a short story about love, death, and resurrection.” Harvey has also announced a UK and European tour. Watch the video and find her tour itinerary below.

“This delicate and beautiful song eluded us until the very last day in the studio,” Harvey said in a statement. “Over the previous five weeks we had tried so many times to capture it and failed, and/but then John reinvented the feel of the guitar pattern. As he was demonstrating it in the control room, Flood handed me a microphone and pressed record whilst I sat next to John trying to work out how to sing to it. The result somehow captures the ethereal and melancholic longing I was looking for. In the lyric everyone is waiting for the savior to reappear—everyone and everything anticipates the arrival of this figure of love and transformation. There is a sense of sexual longing and awakening and of moving from one realm into another—from child to adult, from life to death and the eternal.”

The new album is out July 7 via Partisan. The follow-up to 2016’s The Hope Six Demolition Project features the previously shared single “A Child’s Question, August.”
