Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds God Is in the House

The centerpiece of this DVD is a 90minute concert by Nick Cave the Bad Seeds performing live in Lyon France in the summer of 2001 during a European tour in support of the album No More Shall We Part Its mature and emotive textures dominate this show which means if youre hoping to see Cave whipping himself into a frenzy while Blixa Bargeld rattles the walls with his guitar well youre out of luck However this footage proves that in more subtle form Cave is still a magnetic and compelling performer and that the Bad Seeds have grown into a singularly gifted ensemble who bring just the right amount of drama and force to Caves superb songs with guitarist Mick Harvey and violinist Warren Ellis taking top honors at this performance Beautifully shot intelligently edited and boasting crisp and fullbodied audio God Is in the House is a fine document of Cave and his collaborators on a good night
