Listen to NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS' previously unheard song Earthlings

17 September 2021

NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS have shared the previously-unheard track Earthlings. The song was recorded during the making of 2019's Ghosteen album, and will appear on the forthcoming collection, B-Sides & Rarities Part II, scheduled for release on October 22.

Earthlings follows the announcement of the new B-side compilation last month, and the collection's first release, Vortex.

Speaking of the new track, Nick Cave describes it as the “missing link that binds Ghosteen together" and as "a lovely song that just got away.”

The upcoming compilation was put together by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis, and follows the initial B-Sides & Rarities album from 2005. The new offering contains 27 rare and unreleased tracks from 2006-2020, including the original recordings of Skeleton Tree, Girl In Amber and Bright Horses.
