The Firstborn Is Dead
''The Firstborn Is Dead'' is the second studio album released by the post-punk band Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. It was first released in 1985. On this record, singer Nick Cave continued his fascination with the American South, with its references to Elvis Presley and bluesmen like Blind Lemon Jefferson. The photography is by Jutta Heinglein. The album was recorded in the Hansa Studios in Berlin, Germany. Cave later said of this album, "Berlin gave us the freedom and encouragement to do whatever we wanted. We'd lived in London for three years and it seemed that if you stuck your head out of the box, people were pretty quick to knock it back in. Particularly if you were Australian. When we came to Berlin it was the opposite. People saw us as some kind of force rather than a kind of whacky novelty act." The album's name is a reference to Jesse Garon Presley, the stillborn identical twin of Elvis Presley. The album was remastered and reissued on 27 April 2009 as a collector's ed ...

The Good Son (album)
''The Good Son'' is the sixth album by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, released in 1990. After two dark and harrowing albums with '' Your Funeral... My Trial'' (1986) and ''Tender Prey'' (1988), ''The Good Son'' was a substantial departure with a lighter and generally more uplifting sound. The change of mood was greatly inspired by singer Nick Cave falling in love with Brazilian journalist Viviane Carneiro, and an apparently salutary spell in rehab which purged much of the despair and squalor reflected in the previous two albums. Cave later said, "I guess ''The Good Son'' is some kind of reflection of the way I felt early on in Brazil. I was quite happy there. I was in love and the first year or two was good. The problem I found was ... in order to survive you have to adopt their attitudes towards everything, which are kind of blinkered." Singles and release history ''The Good Son'' was preceded by the release of "The Ship Song" single. A different version of "The Weeping Son ...
