Nick Cave

[Losing my hair]

Well that was not what I was expecting - I don't know why but I'd imagined something more Grinderman. Loved it anyway and it will be getting another airing later.

White Elephant is my boi. That mood change midway through is what it’s all about.

[priest17]

Yeah really enjoyed that. White Elephant probably my top track, only been through twice. I ended up really liking Ghosteen but this ended up a thoroughly enjoyable album I'm sure I'll find more in. A lovely surprise! Curious to see where this takes The Bad Seeds now.

Yeah it's really quite something that.

So they've gone and made another masterpiece? Damn, do these dudes ever rest?

Yeah it's absolutely exceeded my expectations and I'm delighted. Feeling pretty emotional about it! I listened twice and had to turn it off as too distracting to work.

I mean White Elephant is just on another level to 99.99999% of music.

I mean it sounds a bit like Primal Scream......?

Sounds like you’re getting stalked by a lion, then half way through Bobby Gillespie shows up and sings that lion fucker away.

Pure Flaming Lips.

So Balcony Man is one of the most beautiful songs I've heard in a long time.

Urgh got meetings all day, so won't be able to listen in full until after work, up to White Elephant now before stopping. Hand of God is amazing. Sounds like a good counterpoint to Ghosteen so far. I am a little disappointed that it's not a full Bad Seeds record, though. Wonder if it means that these songs won't be played on the NCatBS tours.

That's my worry too. Would love to see some of this live, but I think it might just be a one-off recorded thing.

It is wonderful. I really need to listen to it all again.

Magnificent record. And actually quite uplifting for Cave standards.

This one set a new bar for 2021 for me.

Third listen for me now. Feel you on the uplifting thing. This feels like quite a healing record for me, perfectly timed, and needed the past year to happen for its creation.

I just wish it was longer.

[priest17]

I love it truly. I would say he's not helping his glasto headline bid but we're not clammering for macca to play Fuh You.

[Gilgamesh69]

Please play the Apollo....

Attention Nick Cave nerds. 

Having a clear out and getting rid of a load of stuff, including this DVD/CD set of Cave on the Abattoir Blues tour in 2004. Never watched or listened.

Free to a good home. DM me if you want it and can stick in the post. Just ply me with booze at the meet or summat.

[Ted Dansons Wig]

Just listened to Carnage for the first time. Had ignored it at the end of last week like an ejit as I thought it was the soundtrack of the Venom sequel. Yes I know - Im an idiot.

Its breathtaking. Ghosteen is about as high a bar as I can set but this is same level.

Jesus these guys are on a roll.

Now Grinderman 3 please gents
