someone on here recommeded 'abbatoir blues/lyre of orpheous' to me a while back in my john butler thread. i checked it out and liked it. some new recommendations? is grinderman any good? the guy at hmv told me it was nick cave's new project. he wasn't very familiar with nick cave himself, but said his friends who like his other stuff like it.

t'was i who recommended mr. nick cave to you (i think). if you liked abattoir blues/the lyre of orpheus then you'd probably like grinderman as well. grinderman is very much a different side of nick, but the songs remain well written and bluesy at their core.

 

i would pursue more of nick's back catalog, but take your time with it. as far as i've found, nothing quite sounds like abattoir blues/the lyre of orpheus.

 

also, if you find that you've become a fan of that strange electric violin sound so prominent in nick's more recent releases, then i'd certainly advise you look into dirty three, who are another group of aussies, fronted by warren ellis, expert stringsman and resident noisemaker for both the bad seeds as well as grinderman, not to mention the soundtrack to the proposition. they're an instrumental band, but they're fucking badass.

 

p.s. fuck HMV. go somewhere else, where people actually have good taste in music.

i'm pretty sure it was you. thanks.

 

edit: i just read the wiki for dirty three, and i'm kinda interested to hear them now.
