Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Wild God (2024)
Wild God by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds marks a profound evolution in the band's sound and thematic exploration. Following the tragic losses Cave has endured, this album offers a more hopeful and expansive view of the world, while still steeped in the themes of grief and existential reflection that have characterized his recent work. The album features lush, layered instrumentation, including contributions from Radiohead’s Colin Greenwood, and showcases the full force of The Bad Seeds. Tracks like "Frogs" and "Conversion" blend cosmic gospel with symphonic rock, creating a sound that is both haunting and uplifting. Wild God is a powerful, cathartic experience, illustrating Cave's ability to transform personal pain into universal art(Pitchfork,The Fire Note,louder).
