On Thursday, PJ Harvey announced The Hope Six Demolition Project, the singer-songwriter’s first album since 2011’s Let England Shake. Named (presumably) after a plan by the U.S. Department Of Housing And Urban Development to revitalize public housing projects, the lengthily titled LP drops this April 15, but Harvey — who will be playing at the 2016 Primavera Sound Festival — debuted the lead single today. “The Wheel,” which premiered on Steve Lamacq’s BBC Radio 6 show, was said to have been “inspired by her travels over the past few years.” She shared a snippet of the track earlier this week.
