You cannot lose your faith in someone who continues to reinvent themselves again and again. Someone who knows when the cut off point is, when they are flogging a dead horse and it is time to move on. Avoiding stagnation at all costs simply because to do anything else would be pure suffering. Nick Cave is one of these people.
The new Grinderman video is something of a collage of images, they've borrowed from all sorts of things from Hindu Gods to David and Goliath. The bath scenes with the hair is something that reminds me of the NZ film The Kitchen Sink, probably too obscure for most people to know of but definitely an outstanding short film. But hey guess what I just found it on YouTube, imagine that.
You get to see Nick Cave dressed as Hindu God Kali, and he is also wearing leopard boxers at the end. Maybe this is the end of his No Pussy Blues? He also has shaved off the weird moustache.
