PJ Harvey's forthcoming eighth studio full-length (including her 1997 collaboration with John Parish, Dance Hall at Louse Point) has received a September release date. Spinner.com confirmed the date today with a Rep at Harvey's label, Island Records.

The singer/songwriter debuted songs from the forthcoming record, tentatively titled White Chalk, at festivals last year, before heading into the studio with Parish and producer Flood. The album is expected to be a sharp-turn in direction from Polly Jean's last release, 2004's rough-around-the-edges Uh Huh Her.

The songs debuted at the festivals last year ("The Mountain," "Bitter Little Bird," and the fittingly titled "When Under Ether") are reminiscent of the more ethereal material in her catalog (ala the quieter moments on Is This Desire?). The shift in sound is due mostly to Harvey putting down her guitar; The singer composed and performed the batch of tracks on a piano, a first for the ever-evolving songstress.

Polly has a few festival dates planned for July, with fall tour dates to be announced soon.

PJ HARVEY July 2007 Festival Dates:


14th – Madrid – Summercase Festival
13th – Barcelona – Summercase Festival
7th – Manchester International Festival, Bridgewater Hall – SOLD OUT



Recommended Viewing:

"When Under Ether" from the forthcoming album, performed last year at Copenhagen's Royal Opera House.

I can't wait!
Though I wouldn't say her last one was lame
at all, I would say it wasn't all that 'rough around
the edges' as the press and reviews said.
It rather sounds quite pretty and decently produced
despite things said before and after.

Great news! This is something to look forward to big time.

As far as comments about Uh Huh Her being rough around the edges and lame-o - seriously I think you should go and listen to this album again - it mightn't be as consistent as Stories from the city, stories from the sea, but it is every bit as good as Is this desire?, and better than her other albums (which are still damn good).
