So Marianne back with her brand new album pretty soon! Once again she roped in some very famous friends to work with which looks like from the outside looking in like some kinda fun party than working. Anyway a couple of days ago the co-write Cave song was released, these would the first real new lyrics we see or heard by him since his 2016’s Skeleton Tree album, thanks to Marianne. Well, I have missed Cave & Warren Ellis’ Kings soundtrack album a few months back and the Wind River soundtrack album from last year did have some sung words. Talking of Ellis he’s co-record producer for Faithfull this time around too. The new album is entitled Negative Capability and released on 2nd of November 2018 and also features a couple of songs re-worked from her earlier 60’s & 70’s career, Bobby Dylan cover, one track co-written with Ed Harcourt and another with Mark Lanegan too. Pre-order her album here!
As a bit of an extra bonus blog post stuff today, here’s a little brief history of Faithfull, Cave and off course Ellis recordings. Now if you like their piano and violin backing music and do miss it a little on The Bad Seeds newer albums but here’s some, if you didn’t know about these tracks already? This is I think mainly that’s the style with Marianne epic vocals!
