Artist:Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds
Song:Into My Arms
Album:The Boatman's Call
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds is a very durable post punk band. Most of their success has been as an album and touring band though they have charted in their native Australia. The band was formed in 1983 in Melbourne, Australia by lead singer Nick Cave and pianist Mick Harvey after their previous band The Birthday Party split up. They lived in London at the time. Cave had signed a solo deal with Mute Records. After moving between London and Melbourne, the band was Cave, Harvey on drums, German guitarist Blixa Bargeld, Hugo Race on guitar and Barry Adamson on bass. The band was at first called Nick Cave and the Cavemen and then was changed to Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds. Their 1985 debut album From Her to Eternity was produced by Mark "Flood" Ellis. After Race left, the band moved to Germany and released the 1986 album The First Born Is Dead. This was more blues based than the first album. The band's brooding style got them critical acclaim. They signed a US deal with Elektra and later they were moved to Reprise. Into My Arms is from the 1997 album The Boatman's Call. Cave had just come out of a breakup in his love life and that's what most of the songs are about. The album is available. There are no comps. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds are still around. But Cave is the only original member. Plus Cave has composed music for films. Their latest album was released in 2019. He also leads the band Grinderman and has time for other kinds of writing. Here's the video for Into My Arms by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds.
