The group was born in 1983. It was originally called “NickCave – ManOrMyth”, but a year later it was renamed. This name is an idiom that can be translated as “bad blood.” This name emphasizes the gloomy aesthetics of the musicians’ compositions. The first LPs released originally had a post-punk character but as early as the late eighties, the musicians began to conduct various experiments with styles. Traces of noise-rock, gothic rock, new-wave and blues began to be interlaced into the songs.
The unusual, gloomy style of Nick Cave’s performances are filled with dramatic emotion, at times inspired by Russian classic literature. Since childhood, the legendary rocker has been familiar with the great novels of Russian literature which were introduced to him by his father, who worked as a literature teacher. The famous “Crime and Punishment” by Fyodor Dostoevsky made a special impression on him. Subsequently, the musician often turned to the book for inspiration, actively including it in the lyrics of his compositions.
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds’ upcoming concert has been long-awaited for Russian fans of the singer. Nick Cave, along with his band will perform their new album “SkeletonTree”. The record was created under rather tragic circumstances when the son of the singer tragically passed away. This event is reflected in the especially dramatic atmosphere of the music on this album.
