Album Of The Week: Nick Cave & Warren Ellis | Carnage

The longtime Bad Seeds keep it dark on their first non-soundtrack collaboration.

THE EDITED PRESS RELEASE:Carnage is a new album by Nick Cave & Warren Ellis, recorded over a period of weeks during lockdown. Although the pair have composed & recorded many soundtracks together, and Warren is a long-term member of The Bad Seeds, this is the first time they have released an entire album of new songs as a duo.

Cave describes the album as, “a brutal but very beautiful record nested in a communal catastrophe.” Ellis adds: “Making Carnage was an accelerated process of intense creativity. The eight songs were there in one form or another within the first two and a half days.”
