Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds - “Push the Sky Away”


“Push the Sky Away” is one of the best albums of 2013. What a record! Nick Cave expresses better than ever his writing skills: the whole album is a poem. Amazing piece of work with Warren Ellis (violin, viola), who co-produces seven of the nine album’s songs.

“Jubilee Street”, a dark song, “push the sky away” full of hope, acceptance ( push the limits away), “Higgs Bosom Blues”, a trip to Geneva that ends with Miley Cyrus flooding in a swimming pool in Taluca Lake, “Mermaids” and “Wide Lovely Eyes”. The album is a fairy tale (mermaids, water, skies), humans versus mermaids, not from this earth. 5/5

Upcoming show in Oporto, Optimus Primavera Sound 2013 May 30th
