nme.comNick Cave has shared details of a new album with the Bad Seeds called ‘Wild God’. Check out the tracklist and title track below.Set for release on August 30, the album will comprise 10 songs and see the band move between themes of convention and experimentation – introducing left-turns that heighten the rich imagery and emotive narratives created by the frontman.“I hope the album has the effect on listeners that it’s had on me.
It bursts out of the speaker, and I get swept up with it. It’s a complicated record, but it’s also deeply and joyously infectious,” Cave said of the upcoming release.“There is never a masterplan when we make a record.
The records rather reflect back the emotional state of the writers and musicians who played them. Listening to this, I don’t know, it seems we’re happy,” he added. “There’s no fucking around with this record.
When it hits, it hits. It lifts you. It moves you. I love that about it.”To mark the announcement of the album, the band have shared the title track as the lead single, capturing the same balance between newness and their signature sound as expected in the full album.
