Nick Cave teases live album with brooding Paris set—Dylan allegedly approves

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds announce their forthcoming live album "Wild God" by teasing a performance video from Paris, featuring the title track. The song unfolds under cavernous lighting, with Cave prowling the stage in a tailored black suit, channeling preacher, prophet, and theatre noir all in one breath.

The performance gains an additional layer of cultural currency thanks to the presence of Bob Dylan in the audience—purportedly a fan of what he witnessed. The record is slated for release on August 30.

The TV series is expected for release this year, merging Cave’s narrative voice with the atmospheric swells characteristic of his musical partnership with Ellis.

Once dismissing it as a grotesque parody of humanity, Cave now lends his image to a video starring an AI-generated Elvis Presley.

The monochrome clip unfolds like a surreal Southern fever dream, casting the King as a spectral messiah amid storm-lashed chaos, while Cave’s brooding presence haunts the margins in vintage footage.

He describes the text as “unnecessarily provocative” and refuses to voice it over a meandering Greek bouzouki intro he dismisses as “lengthy and entirely irrelevant.”
