NEW DVD RELEASE
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds release a brand new DVD on 23rd January 2006. The DVD features the legendary tour film THE ROAD TO GOD KNOWS WHERE and LIVE AT THE PARADISO, both available together here for the first time on DVD. Described by the NME on its original VHS release as “the definitive documentary of the music business in its glorious, monotonous reality”, The Road To God Knows Where by Uli M. Schueppel is an intimate and revealing insight into a band on the road. Filming during their US tour in Feb / March 1989, we see life on the road as it truly was. On the road – at the hotel – sound check – backstage – the concert – backstage – back at the hotel – hitting the road again… Featuring a Bad Seeds line up of Nick Cave, Mick Harvey, Blixa Bargeld, Thomas Wydler, Kid Congo Powers and Roland Wolf, the film also introduces us to a cast of extras from the band’s crew and the band’s guests (including Anita Lane, Lydia Lunch and Lung Leg).

Live At The Paradiso was recorded in Amsterdam in June 1992 and features classic Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds songs such as The Mercy Seat, The Ship Song, Tupelo and Deanna performed by a line up of Nick Cave, Mick Harvey, Blixa Bargeld, Conway Savage, Thomas Wydler and Martyn P Casey. The concert film was edited by long-time collaborator John Hillcoat whose credits include The Proposition (scripted by Nick Cave and due for UK release in March 06), To Have And To Hold and Ghosts of The Civil Dead plus many Bad Seeds promo videos). The Director of Photography was John Mathieson who went on to work on Gladiator and the forthcoming Brian Jones biopic, Stoned.

Any word on a new Nick Cave record?
The last one was my #1 of '04, and remains my #1 of the millennium.

So... anyone hear anything?

I'm with you on the high ranking of that last one. It's pretty much perfect.

What I want to know is when he's going to frickin' TOUR.

have you bought any older nick cave albums?

well, he did just write a movie.

Not to mention the B-sides collection was just released, which usually signifies a buffer between albums to hold over fans. I put it in this perspective--Ellis just put out an album with Dirty 3, Cave just did a film, I would imagine that tied the both of them up pretty extensively. Probably late 2006 or early 2007 for the next Bad Seeds record. But that again is just my educated guessing.

Agreed.
When he comes to Chicago, I am THERE!!!

have you bought any older nick cave albums?

i have everything he has ever done whether it be with birthday party or die haut or boys next door or completely solo or with the bad seeds, as well as other various guest appearances and side-projects. You could call it an obsession, i guess. But if you want anything by way of YSI, shoot me a pm. (except for the good son, firstborn and henry's dream, because i only have them on vinyl).

Also, Mick Harvey just put out an album.



Unlucky for you guys, he isn't very fond of America.

by the way, have you ever seen him live? god i'll envy you if you do.
he's on the "i'd kill to see" list.... between he and tom waits.
and a resurrected sun ra.
