The London Tide soundtrack was then made available on streaming platforms in October. Harvey has since announced a run of headline shows in Australia and Japan for 2025 in support of her 10th and latest album ‘I Inside The Old Year Dying’ .
Tickets for the Australian dates can be bought here . Tickets to the Japan shows are available here . ‘I Inside The Old Year Dying’ scored a four-star review from Elizabeth Aubrey, who wrote for NME : “‘I think the album is about searching, looking.
.. and seeking meaning,’ Harvey said.
While the meaning part is sometimes tough to decipher – far more so than her previous work – it’s not the answer here that’s important but the journey. It takes a little time to immerse yourself in Harvey’s world, but once there, you won’t want to leave.” In a three-star review of Bad Sisters , NME wrote: “ Bad Sisters season two might not quite capture the bottled-lightning originality of season one but it offers enough intrigue, brash boldness and spark to render it a compelling watch.
