PJ HARVEY has featured scenes of the funeral of a soldier killed in Afghanistan in her new music video.

'Bitter Branches' is the upcoming single from her unreleased new album 'Let England Shake' and features mourners from Wooten Basset paying their respects for the fallen hero.

Photographer Seamus Murphy was collecting images for the promo when he stumbled across mourners placing flowers on the slain soldier's hearse in Wootton Bassett, England and asked if he could film the sombre scene.

  He tells Spinner.com, "I had been there in the summer and noticed the grieving families placing roses on the roof of the hearse - a moment appropriate to mix with lyrics about war widows."
