Such great news to wake up to on a Monday. He wrote about the song Fireflies about a year ago: https://www.theredhandfiles.com/write-r ... perfectly/ |

Saw the Q&A show in Chicago last night -- a totally unique experience, a genuine attempt on Cave's part to connect with his audience, with absolutely no outward element of self-importance, and in a beautiful, intimate theater. He talked a lot about his songwriting process and finding hope after the loss of his son, and told stories about Johnny Cash, Michael Hutchence, and various members of the Bad Seeds. Across the board his responses were thoughtful and respectful, even when the audience didn't give him much to work with (questions ranged from thoughtful to one-dimensional to fanboy-idiotic to 'this is a valid question but why is Nick Cave the person you're choosing to ask about it?'), and in many cases he deliberately eschewed responses that could have garnered him easy applause (questions on politics, religion, general state-of-the-world things) in favor of more nuanced responses that really kept the level of discourse classy. Some great musical performances too -- highlights for me were "O Children" and a cover of Leonard Cohen's "Avalanche." He did politely decline a request to play a song from the new album, which I am definitely looking more forward to now. |

I passed up the chance to see the Q&A when he passed through my town early last year, from memory financial constraints got the better of me. I won't pass the opportunity up again should it present itself however. I guess that his writing for the Red Hand Files where he is answering various fan-sourced questions would work as background thoughts/preparation for the questions that he would anticipate being asked in these live settings. He certainly always gives very thoughtful and considered responses to those. Really looking forward to this new album. I don't think he can do much wrong at present. |

Listening to the stream of this album as I type. So far its quite measured and musically slow, not unlike much of his more recent stuff. It's deep though, in a way that seems to get inside of you. Just the feel of the songs, I mean. In particular the lyrics seem to be very personal, but I guess that they all are until you let them roam free in the wild. I'm only half way through but there have been a few moments where the lyrics have almost jarred me and made me stop and pay attention, as in "What did he just sing?". I find he has an amazing ability to put basic truths into simple words. I'm always happy to have long form music available to me to get through my office day, and I find this style suits me best - flowing, smooth, kinda peaceful, vocals there or not, but never harsh. On that basis alone this will certainly get many repeat listens from me. Overall (so far - 6 songs in) it is an album of feelings, deep with love and deep with loss. Not surprising at all considering his family's recent history, but it still astounds me that he can face such tragedy and somehow move through it (within it?) to still create. |
