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. Which is basically that Cave and company got wrecked before recording a marathon-length jam on "Tower Of Song" [...]

"You moved in slow degrees/A sudden memory/You're a Leonard Cohen song" - Better Than Ezra, "Under You" "But I was caught, like a fleeting thought / Stuck inside Leonard Cohen's mind" - Mercury Rev, "A Drop In Time" "Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld / So I can sigh eternally" - Nirvana, "Pennyroyal Tea" It's almost unbelievable now to think that we almost never heard Leonard Cohen , the singer. A well-regarded poet from the late [...]

Jesus ear-fucking Christ this fucking hurts to listen to. The Willow Garden is a song I first came across as a b-side to Where the Wild Roses Grow by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. I didn't know it was a traditional song at that point, but I didn't care where it came from. I didn't even know who Warren Ellis was, but the fiddle playing on the song was some of the best I had (and still have) ever heard. It's amazing - managing to sound mournful, morbid and creepy all together. Like [...]

Quem foi abatido pelo abrupto anúncio de que o Grinderman chegou ao fim tem dois motivos para se consolar. O primeiro já era uma expectativa óbvia: Nick Cave e os Bad Seeds voltarão a cuidar de sua banda principal, o que significa que ano que vem talvez tenhamos o sucessor de Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!! , lançado em 2008. A revelação veio de Jim Sclavunos , baterista de ambas as bandas, para o site Australiano FasterLouder . O músico comenta a questão do Bad [...]

Over the weekend, frontman Nick Cave closed a Grinderman show at Australia's Meredith Music Festival by declaring , "That's it for Grinderman. It's over." These comments led many to believe that the band was breaking up. However in a new interview with FasterLouder , Grinderman drummer Jim Sclavunos referred to Cave's comments as "more a bye-bye than an announcement" and explained that "an announcement would be like a press release, but who knows what will happen in five or 10 years time." Sclavunos added that the band "may well get the itch [...]
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News Deirdre O Callaghan Nick Cave never struck us as the sentimental type, but it was still surprising to hear how abruptly he announced that his Bad Seeds side project Grinderman are finished. The singer broke the news at the end of the group's performance at the Meredith Music Festival in Victoria, Australia: "That's it for Grinderman. It's over," Cave said. [...]

![[Listen] Chelsea Wolfe: "Let Love In" (Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds Cover)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3753866_lg.jpg)
La segunda reina misteriosa, hermosa y consentida de este blog con sus vibras ocultistas y muy oscuras acaba de hacer un cover magistral de uno de mis artistas y compositores favoritos de todos los tiempos: Nick Cave. Este cover de Chesea Wolfe a "Let Love In" es algo bastante intrigante y un poco elegante, tiene unos toques bastante refinados con texturas bastante calidas sin dejar de lado toda esa oscuridad y pesades que escuchamos en su mas reciente y fantastico material " Apokalypsis ". Como sabemos, pese a que en el sonido de Chelsea Wolfe solo [...]

Trailing back to a previous List 'Em article regarding cover songs, everything from tributary motives to bowdlerization to pure subconscious innocence preserves a folksy tradition of recreating earlier work, thereby making it one's own. The cycle of covering older songs, for whatever the reason, has continued for decades. Most commonly seen in a nostalgic light, encompassing everything from pre-Billboard 45s and porch-played blues to '80s pop, a reboot or a re-imagining can be stripped of pretense to selfish cores, or even hailed as a classic so much that the original creator sees fit to redo his own take [...]
