Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds To Release New Album In September

Rumours of the album’s completion first surfaced in early March and now it looks like Aussie icons Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds are set to release new material this September through an interesting means.

The yet-to-be-titled follow-up to 2013 smashing Push The Sky Away will reportedly premiere at a performance film (shot in black and white, colour and 3D) at independent LA cinema Laemmle on September 8, with no tracks released in the lead up, according to a listing via the theatre’s website.

The information appears to have since been removed, but as Stereogum reports, the listing stated the new album "will be released at midnight into 9th September 2016, with the film making its premiere on 8th September.”

“The record has an intimacy and starkness that the film’s photographic style will reflect," the post also read.

“The idea is to create an experience that is immersive but also elegant, that feels both immediate and archival.”

That’s one way to combat piracy.

The Music has reached out to Cave’s label and the cinema for comment.
