Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Data updated on 2025-02-07 08:16:55 UTC
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds are one of the world’s most exciting, influential, innovative and compelling bands. Driven by a continuous creative evolution, their music displays a diverse, often contradictory range of styles. Across 18 studio albums, from 1984’s From Her to Eternity (2009 - Remaster) to 2024’s Wild God, they have consistently reinvented their sound, with Cave considering it as their “solemn duty to turn against what has gone before”. Wild God is an album that reveals its charms swiftly and its secrets slowly. While there may be moments that touch fondly upon the Bad Seeds’ past, they are fleeting, and serve only to imbue the relentless and restless forward motion of the band. As a live band Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds are one of most thrilling acts to ever take to the stage. With powerful live performances that resonate more deeply that any other show you will see, they are continually called upon to headline major European festivals, and tour extensively in Australia and North and South America.
