Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds announced their new album Skeleton Tree three months ago, but the only early taste of the album they've shared up to this point is a trailer with snippets of the new music. The release of the album has quickly approached, though, and today they offer the single "Jesus Alone" with a visual accompaniment.
The song is a warped, ambient six minutes of lush minimalism with eerie synths, and dark, cinematic sweeps winding around Cave's sparse piano chords. As for the the clip, it's a simple black-and-white capture of Cave & The Bad Seeds recording the song, giving us a window into the somber mood and chilling bleakness they tapped into for the song. The footage is from Andrew Dominik's forthcoming 3D movie One More Time With Feeling. Watch.
