Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Lyre Of Orpheus/Abattoir Blues



Nick Cave is quite prolific in terms of music in Australia in the contemporary era. He challenges the conventions, in Australia there is a dug-in deep musical scene, where if you don't abide by the norm, you are cast out as challenging things. Nick Cave has an attitude of not the norm. He is a prolific writer and written the music for several films including with Warren Ellis the score to plays like an adaption of Frank Kafka's Metamorphosis that I witnessed in Hobart many years ago. He has the odd great song, there are two on here; ''There She Goes, My Beautiful World'' and ''Nature Boy''. His recent endeavours like a tour of Israel certainly raised eyebrows.
