Listen To Never Before Heard Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds Song ‘Earthlings’

151

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds have shared the second offering from their second instalment of B-Sides & Rarities. Announcing B-Sides & Rarities Part II last month, they shared ‘Vortex’, now they’re sharing ‘Earthlings’.

‘Earthlings’ is a stunning track that Cave has dubbed, “The finest track of the Ghosteen sessions.”

“I always liked the original B-Sides & Rarities more than any of our other albums. It’s the only one I’d listen to willingly. It seems more relaxed, even a bit nonsensical in places, but with some beautiful songs throughout. There is something, too, about the smallness of certain songs that is closer to their original spirit.

B-Sides & Rarities Part II continues this strange and beautiful collection of lost songs from The Bad Seeds. I love the final side of the last disc because it reveals the small and fragile beginnings of some of my favourite Bad Seeds songs.

“‘Waiting For You’ complete with bizarre ‘canning factory’ rhythm track, a gorgeous ‘Life Per Se’ deemed too sad for Skeleton Tree, and ‘Earthlings’ that some consider the finest track of the Ghosteen sessions.”

B-Sides & Rarities Part II is due for release Friday, 22nd October.
