Nick Cave and 20,000 Days on Earth

Last night my wife and I attended the premiere of the new film 20,000 Days on Earth. It is a fictional documentary about Mr. Cave, and probably my favorite film of 2014 (definitely up until this point it is). Read about it on Joup here, where I've also posted Mr. Cave and his Bad Seed's masterpiece And No More Shall We Part as my entry into this week's The Joup Friday Album column.

Trailer: Nick Cave's 20,000 Days on Earth

Recently my wife worked the Berlin film fest for the old Industry magazine she used to be employed by - no, she did not have the benefit of going to Berlin. A lot of the trades apparently stopped actually sending anyone but their critics to the actual fests about a year after she was lucky enough to go to Cannes. But she went in everyday at 5 AM to assemble the thing. Anyway, one of the still she sent me was from Nick Cave's forthcoming 20,000 Days on Earth. To say I am excited for this film is an understatement.

Had no idea that dropped. Possibly my favorite song on an album with all amazing songs.

I'm not going to lie - there is NO WAY in hell I'm going out to pick this up today. Working a skeleton crew day at the lab and then coming home to work on my script, then later maybe watch a movie or two because I am quite behind on what people have lent me recently. However, I will be going out tomorrow to pick this up. Live Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. Recorded through KCRW, best NPR station in the nation, and if giving Henry Rollins a place for his radio show and putting something like this out doesn't prove that, I don't know what will.

Nick Cave & Kylie Minogue Performing Classic "Where the Wild Roses Grow" Live in London!

Kudos to this fan for grabbing this distant yet still important footage. Have Cave and Minogue ever performed this live before? Apparently this will be used in the documentary Nick and the boys in the Seeds are focusing on currently, which you can read more about on mxdwn here.

And here's some floor footage I just found. Again, kudos to the person who posted this.

Ghost BC - Secular Haze

I'm so wrapped up in this ghost record right now that I'm revisiting a lot of the tracks and images released in the lead-up to it. I realized I never posted this one.

This and Nick Cave and the Bad Seed's Push the Sky Away are easily going to rank in my top ten of the year.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds 2001 Concert

Well, the video for Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds live at LA's Henry Fonda Theatre may have been taken off-line, but here's an older show to get us through those withdrawals.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Cocks 'n' Asses

Great B-side I re-discovered while going through my listening preparations for Push the Sky Away. Reminds me a little bit of "Three" on Seventeen Seconds by The Cure. Has what I always think of as the "Vertigo Comics Vibe". I need to post a list of other stuff with that vibe and an explanation - I think it's an interesting theory.

New Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds Video - Jubilee Street

Starring Ray Winstone no less. Push the Sky Away is getting closer (Feb 18th)

Mutiny In Heaven - Nick Cave & The Cavemen - La Edad de Oro, London 1984

Whoah, watched this and didn't realize at first that it had Barry Adamson on bass and backing vox.

"From slum-chuch to slum-church, ah spilt mah heart
To some fat cunt behind a screen... " - beautiful Mr. Cave.

Nick Cave - Fifteen Feet Of Pure White Snow

One of my favorite Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds songs from what is DEFINITELY my favorite album by the group - how have I never seen this video before???

Brilliant!!!
