Our Take

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds have certainly kicked against the pricks with their latest album, aptly titled "Kicking Against The Pricks". This eclectic collection of cover songs showcases the band's incredible range and musical prowess, as they put their own unique spin on classics from the likes of Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Roy Orbison.

From the haunting vocals of Cave to the moody instrumentation provided by The Bad Seeds, each track on this album is a masterclass in sonic storytelling. Whether it's the stripped-down rawness of "Long Black Veil" or the brooding intensity of "Black Betty", every song is a captivating journey into the dark and twisted world of Nick Cave.

But what really sets this album apart is the sheer audacity of the band's interpretations. The way they take these beloved classics and make them their own is nothing short of genius. From the haunting piano on "Muddy Water" to the thunderous drums on "Hey Joe", each song is a testament to the band's creativity and skill.

In short, "Kicking Against The Pricks" is a must-listen for any fan of Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, or just good music in general. So sit back, relax, and let yourself be swept away by the dark and beautiful sounds of this incredible album. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
