THE GOOD, THE MAD & THE UGLY - Adam Steiner's New Book Dissects Nick Cave's Body of Work
Covert Art for âDarker With The Dawnâ by Adam Steiner Nick Caveâs journey from vampiric drug-addled iconoclast to something akin to national treasure in both his native Australia and adopted home of Britain is as remarkable as it is unlikely. An uncompromising force of nature, his ability to deliver work of consistently high calibre over a 40-year-plus career makes him an artist worthy ofâŠ
THIS IS WHY YOU LOVE ME - Brian Jonestown Massacre At Brixton Academy Live Review
GOT MY EYE ON YOU â Anton Newcombe faces his public WORDS: Matt Catchpole IMAGES: Sam Wells Many music writers, this one included, have incurred the wrath of Anton Newcombe for daring to mention Dig! â the 2004 documentary which simultaneously made and purportedly buried Brian Jonestown Massacre.

GREAT MOMENTS IN MUSIC - No 50 - 'Interlude' by Morrissey & Siouxsie
*In no particular order some of my favourite musical moments. No50 Interlude by Morrissey & Siouxsie The first cover in Our Great Moments In Music series is an extraordinary duet between two of the most intriguing and iconoclastic personalities of their generation; Morrissey and Siouxsie Sioux. The team up emerged out of Morrisseyâs penchant for approaching his â usually female â musical heroesâŠ
TRUE FAITH - Is 'Wild God' Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds' Most Religious Album Yet?
Wild God cover art The first thing you notice about Nick Cave and the The Bad Seedsâ 18th studio album is just how bloody BIG it sounds. After the knotty, experimental and frankly grief-stricken trilogy of Skeleton Tree, Ghosteen and Carnage, the tethers are off. Wild God is the sound of a band unleashed â with choirs, orchestration â the whole kitchen sink â thrown in. Cave has gone for brokeâŠ
THE SECOND COMING - Dada-ist Post-Punks The Very Things Release First Album in 30 Years
21st CENTURY BOYS â RR Dallaway fronting the new Very Things Itâs the mid-â80s and Channel 4âs frequently shambolic and occasionally brilliant The TUBE is about to air, what for this viewer, is one of its finest moments. Glitchy, electronically created VJ Max Headroom â a spin-off from an edgy futuristic drama on the same channel â is introducing, not so much a music video, but a fully realisedâŠ

SPECTRAL FEAST - PJ Harvey Enchants In Sell Out Show At Camden Roundhouse in London
On record PJ Harveyâs I Inside the Old Year Dying is a knotty, fragile creation. Sparse and intense, itâs a difficult, but ultimately fulfilling listen. Fears it might feel underpowered in a live context are blown away within seconds of her taking the stage for the first of two sold out shows at the Camden Roundhouse. The album, her first for seven years, is played in full in a theatricalâŠ

A SLIGHT RETURN - 'I Inside The Old Year Dying,' By PJ Harvey Is A Sparse, Spooky, 12-Song Cycle
QUIETLY DISQUIETING â PJ Harvey I Inside The Old Year Dying, PJ Harveyâs first proper audio album in seven years follows a period of intense introspection. One of the UKâs most original and successful artists, Harvey became so consumed by the endless merry-go-round of albums and tours, she felt sheâd lost connection with her music. As with 2016âs The Hope Six Demolition Project, she got herâŠ

LIVING IN THE '80s: The Beat And Bow Wow Wow Party Like It's 1982 At The Roundhouse
PICTURES: Sam Wells, WORDS: Matt Catchpole Itâs a scorching Camden summerâs evening and weâre here to witness the return of the leaders of two bands whose moment in the sun stretches back more than 40 years. Yes it was 1982 when Dave Wakelingâs band The Beat and Bow Wow Wow, fronted by precocious Burma-born teen Annabella Lwin, were at the peak of their powers. A time when rocketing inflationâŠ
