WATCH: Polly Harvey gets political on new track
'The Community Of Hope' takes a well-aimed shot at US housing policy
PJ Harvey ramps up the excitement for her The Hope Six Demolition Project album even more with the video for ‘The Community Of Hope’. A short, sharp burst of spiky pop, it addresses America’s HOPE VI initiative, which is supposed to breathe new life into dilapidated housing projects but more often than not results in rent hikes and residents having to move out. One of her most politically direct songs yet, it’s likely to result in some serious chart action.
