Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ The Firstborn Is Dead from 1985 pushes deeper into blues, Southern Gothic and biblical obsession. Inspired partly by Elvis Presley and the mythology of the American South, it is a darker, more focused record than the debut. “Tupelo” is the towering centrepiece, all thunder, menace and apocalyptic drama, while “The Carny” points toward Cave’s later storytelling style. Primitive, hypnotic and steeped in myth, it remains one of the essential early Bad Seeds albums.
