Murder Ballads
Nick Cave is Australia's pre-eminent lyricist. The album Murder
Ballads, recorded in 1995 was made as the band reached the cusp of stardom. The album marked a significant turning point in Cave's development as an artist and the group's success.
The album draws on ancient songs, which Cave has dramatically reinterpreted. It also represents the apotheosis of his "narrative" style and is a harbinger to the more intimate and confessional albums, which have followed.
The dynamics of the Bad Seeds are key to Cave's artistic world.
Murder Ballads was recorded almost live and with a great deal of spontaneity. Discussions on the sessions, primarily with Mick Harvey and bass player Martyn Casey will illuminate the creative dynamic in the Bad Seeds. This issue is as critical as Cave's lyrics to the success of the group. New musicians came into the group at this point, notably violinist Warren Ellis and changed the sound of the Bad Seeds.
Cave's work has been powered by struggle; a desire to achieve and to react against and better the previous album. This film reveals the internal struggle within the Bad Seeds and in Cave himself.
