Nick Cave adds fall North American tour dates

Continuing on his quest for world domination, Nick Cave has added some new shows onto his touring trek. The Australian-born megaforce will be extending his performances into the fall of 2008. If you would like to further support the supremacy of Cave and his gang of Bad Seeds, then you can vote for them here. The band has been nominated for this year's Mojo Honours List for best album and best song as a result of their most recent musical contribution Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!. Did we mention that it's a truly badass record? Oh yes, that's right, we most certainly...  read more

Nick Cave tours Europe, conquers world?

It sure seems like the mysterious, mustachioed Australian known as Nick Cave is trying to take over the planet via an endless onslaught of new (and awesome) material. After a year in which he released the well-received, self-titled Grinderman debut and scored an acclaimed film, the prolific quinquagenarian is strutting into 2008 armed with a new album and his first European tour in over three years. As we reported earlier this month, the 11-track album—the group's fourteenth studio release—emerges in the U.K. on March 3 and, on a Mayflower-esque schedule, lands on U.S. shores about five weeks later, on April...  read more

New Nick Cave video struts hard

Stop the presses on the Art House Powerhouse issue! Nick Cave might have just strolled his way to a little honorable mention in our pages for the awesome performance in his new Bad Seeds-backed video, "Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!" It was no easy task, but this clip manages to earn every exclamation point of the song (and album) title. Cave endlessly struts and mugs at the camera as he tells his rejiggered story of the biblical zombie Lazarus (here rechristened "Larry"). Meanwhile, the Bad Seeds vamp on a crunchy, Nuggets-style organ riff, drenching the monologue in a healthy coat of filth...  read more

Nick Cave reveals Dig tracklist

Recently, Nick Cave has dabbled in a few side projects like Grinderman and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, the latter of which he helped compose the score for. Both these musical endeavors have involved some of the Bad Seeds, but its been four years since the proper band put out a studio album. Hope for a fresh offering was resurrected in late 2007 with reports of a new Bad Seeds record set to drop in the U.K. March 3. Now we can confirm that the album will hit U.S. shelves on April 8. Dig, Lazarus,...  read more

Dig Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds' new album

The Biblical story of Lazarus, in which Jesus wakes a man from the dead without defibrillator paddles via the delicious smell of frying bacon his inherent Christ-ness, is an oft-alluded-to text. Sylvia Plath wrote the poem "Lady Lazarus," Pete & Pete drank the intense "Orange Lazarus" slushee and now Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds have dubbed their 14th studio album Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!! A title with enough punctuation to jolt anyone to their senses. Set for a March 3 release date on Anti- in the UK, says Pitchfork, with no specific U.S. date so far, the album was co-produced...  read more

Good News For People Who Love Bad Seeds

Britain's resident busy bee Nick Cave has taken time off from the bump and grind of his latest side project to compile a live four-disc set to be released March 20 by Mute. The package includes two concert DVDs, one of a sold-out show at London’s Brixton Academy in 2004 and the other of a performance at the Hammersmith Apollo during 2003’s “Nocturama” tour. Rounding out the collection are two audio discs comprised of live recordings from the Bad Seeds’ “Abattoir Blues” tour in 2004, a special treat to us stateside since that tour never came to America. In other...  read more
