Barry Adamson Tries to Set You Free

Feb 17, 3:23pm Rocker Magazine

Barry Adamson, formerly of Magazine, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, and Visage, has been consistently producing moody, sometimes sleazy and generally engaging solo recordings since the late 1980s. This year Adamson celebrated Valentine's Day by releasing "I Will Set You Free," a 10-song set on his Central Control International label. The album opens strong with the one-two punch of the rhythm-heavy throbbing bassline of "Get Your Mind Right," and the almost-anthemic "Black Holes in My Brain" (I can't recall a song title being repeated this many times since Bruce Springsteen's "Born in [...]

Feb 10, 2:00am PopMatters

Regardless how history comes to look Nick Cave's <ithe Death of Bunny Munro , in the context of Cave's career, it stands alone as the purest distillation of his artistry -- a poetic novel with Cave's inimitable brand of the grotesque, absurd and often comic nature of humanity. With the publication of The Death of Bunny Munro in the spring of 2009, Australian songwriter, author, and modern-day renaissance man Nick Cave unleashed on his public perhaps one of the most deviant, despicable protagonists in the entirety of modern literature. Bunny Munro -- drug abusing, chain-smoking, sex-obsessed lothario whose spree [...]

Wikipedia I was having a little trouble coming up with something to say about this week's selection by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds and taken from the 1991 Leonard Cohen tribute album I'm Your Fan , but happily a little plumbing around the tubes of the internet turned up this little piece at chromehorse (chrome solidarity!) that corroborates the bit at Wikipedia on the song.

Moving Pictures: "Bellringer Blues (Nick Zinner Remix)" by Grinderman

Jan 19, 6:42pm I Rock Cleveland

Let's say I didn't spend the past year collecting all of the 123 singles released following Grinderman's 2010 album, Grinderman 2, I'd be all over this upcoming remix collection on Anti- Records featuring collaborations and reinterpretations featuring Robert Fripp, Josh Homme, A Place to Bury Strangers, Cat's Eyes and Factory Floor. Hell, I'll still be all over Grinderman 2 RMX on the strength of the previously unreleased version of "Bellringer Blues," featured above, and wonderfully twisted, tortured, and hacked to shit by Nick Zinner of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Yeah, it's that good. [...]
