}

});

Set to arrive Friday, 26th February, the reissue will be released alongside a previously unreleased demos collection which will feature early versions of every song on the album.
To coincide with the announcement, Harvey has shared an early demo of album track ‘This Mess We’re In’. It’s a considerably sparser version of the song than the final, Thom Yorke-featuring track that featured on the album, but it’s no less stunning.
Listen to the new demo of ‘This Mess We’re In’ below. Harvey’s last new studio album was 2016’s The Hope Six Demolition Project.
