Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds have announced details of their 15th studio album. The first single to be taken from the follow up to 2008's Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!!, "We No Who U R", will be available from December 3. Watch a tense trailer for the album below, featuring footage of the band recording. "This is one of those nasty ballads!" Cave exclaims at one point.
Push the Sky Away is, according to a release, the most "subtly beautiful" of all the Bad Seeds' albums. It was produced by Nick Launay and recorded at La Fabrique, a studio ensconsed within a 19th century mansion in south France. "Well, if I were to use that threadbare metaphor of albums being like children, then Push the Sky Away is the ghost-baby in the incubator and Warren's [Ellis] loops are its tiny, trembling heart-beat," wrote Cave.
wohoho!
I’m glad Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds start the tour in Mexico City, and I’ll be there. Yeah!
Seriously, cant wait!
Need to listen to this album several times to really get it. At least I did, since I must admit I’m a relatively new listener to this group of performers. I truly enjoyed it. Thank you.
