Nick Cave, famous for
his contributions to popular music with such bands as The Birthday
Party, Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds and Grinderman has launched an app
for the music streaming service Spotify to help make sense of his
expansive back catalogue.
Developed in tandem with web design agency Retrofuzz and Kobalt Label Services, the app covers over 20 albums that Cave and his various bands have produced over the past 30 years, as well as various collaborations, and generates play lists according to several categories as defined by Cave himself: Classic, Murder & Mayhem, Spiritual, Confessional, Blasphemy, Sex, Heartbreak, Comic, Love, and Super Dark.
In addition to this are playlists from artists Jarvis Cocker, Dave Gahan, Lou Reed and Mary Ann Hobbs with the songs that have inspired them.
