New Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds album on the way

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds have confirmed the September 9 release of new studio album, Skeleton Tree, and accompanying feature film, One More Time With Feeling, which hits cinemas the night before.
Directed by Andrew Dominik, the documentary took an unexpectedly tragic turn when Cave’s son Arthur died during its making.
“Originally a performance based concept, One More Time With Feeling evolved into something much more significant as Dominik delved into the tragic backdrop of the writing and recording of the album,” explains the blurb. “Interwoven throughout the Bad Seeds’ filmed performance of the new album are interviews and footage shot by Dominik, accompanied by Cave’s intermittent narration and improvised rumination.
“Filmed in black-and-white and colour, in both 3D and 2D, the result is stark, fragile and raw, and a true testament to an artist trying to find his way through the darkness.”
