All sorts of fun and abrasive stuff in this video to enjoy or hate or laugh at or whatever.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - More News From Nowhere

It took me most of 2008 to get around to listening to Nick Cave's excellent, urgently titled "Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!!" When I first heard "More News From Nowhere" on the radio several months ago, I mistook it for a Tender Prey-era throwback, so steeped is it in his core aesthetic. (The Odyssey recast in a seedy hotel/lounge and drenched in booze and sex and vice? This is like Hemingway and dying, alone, in the rain.)

Anyway, enjoy this preview of one of my top songs of 2008. The video is a bit NSFW, so listen with the window minimized, or watch at home (or both, for it is a rad video).
