Anita Lane rose to prominence through her association with <a href="spotify:artist:1RM5gp0RFfjpJhCYFPB30p">Nick Cave</a> and contributed lyrics to such <a href="spotify:artist:4UXJsSlnKd7ltsrHebV79Q">Bad Seeds</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:5I2hMUcztc6QbzkyLskdt4">Birthday Party</a> recordings as "Kiss Me Black," "From Her to Eternity," and "Stranger Than Kindness." She also appeared on tracks by <a href="spotify:artist:4xoV3kh3rwrWaPc17zyDyY">Barry Adamson</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:7KomCxZv6D5qCVvefwMnwB">Einstürzende Neubauten</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:5RyAbJ3y4yw8EbDcRblB8S">Mick Harvey</a>. Her sporadic solo career began with the four-song EP Dirty Sings, which showcased her bruised vocal style. 1995's Dirty Pearl was an odds-and-ends collection of tracks that Lane recorded over the period of a decade. <a href="spotify:artist:1RM5gp0RFfjpJhCYFPB30p">Cave</a> and various <a href="spotify:artist:4UXJsSlnKd7ltsrHebV79Q">Bad Seeds</a> members make appearances on the release, as does <a href="spotify:artist:7KomCxZv6D5qCVvefwMnwB">Einstürzende Neubauten</a>. <a href="spotify:artist:4UXJsSlnKd7ltsrHebV79Q">Bad Seed</a> <a href="spotify:artist:5RyAbJ3y4yw8EbDcRblB8S">Mick Harvey</a> produced much of the effort and <a href="spotify:artist:4xoV3kh3rwrWaPc17zyDyY">Barry Adamson</a> contributed to the arrangements. 2001 saw the release of Lane's first fully-realized studio LP, Sex O'Clock. The (almost) danceable and poppy effort was made in collaboration with <a href="spotify:artist:5RyAbJ3y4yw8EbDcRblB8S">Harvey</a>, who provided music and instrumentation. (Some of the musical arrangements are tape loops of <a href="spotify:artist:4UXJsSlnKd7ltsrHebV79Q">Bad Seeds</a> jams from the mid-'90s.) The album also featured a cover of <a href="spotify:artist:0kEfub5RzlZOB2zGomqVSU">Gil Scott-Heron</a>'s "Home Is Where the Hatred Is." Anita Lane died on April 28, 2021 at the age of 61. ~ Erik Hage, Rovi
