Nick Cave releases Seven Psalms project on streaming services
Nick Cave has given his Seven Psalms project an official release on streaming services today (1 July).
Cave's Seven Psalms project was annoounced in April, and features seven spoken word tracks from Cave that features music by Ellis, as well as a 12-minute instrumental that was recorded during their Carnage album sessions.
Today (1 July) Cave has released the project, which was produced by Cave and Luis Almau, on streaming services as well as on limited edition 10" vinyl.
Cave said of Seven Psalms, "While in lockdown I wrote a number of psalms, or small, sacred songs—one a day for a week. The seven psalms are presented as one long meditation—on faith, rage, love, grief, mercy, sex and praise. A veiled, contemplative offering borne of an uncertain time. I hope you like it."
Next week Cave and Warren Ellis' Andrew Dominik-directed documentary This Much I Know To Be True will be released on MUBI.
