September 9 - Jesus Alone

The first track released from Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds' new album Skeleton Tree was the haunting Jesus Alone. The rest of the album is out today, and if Jesus Alone is any indication of what to expect from it, we're in from a treat. After losing his son Arthur in a tragic fall from a cliff in Brighton, where Cave lives, it is no surprise that the theme of life, death, love, and religion is front and center. Watch the bearded Warren Ellis conduct strings - and be warned: This may cause goosebumps!
