Nick Cave is known for introducing comicality and raw passion into the ‘Rock’ genre. His band, ‘Boys Next Door’ was fixated with the leitmotifs of Goth, religion, death, violence and love, which later became the central themes of another one of his bands called, ‘Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds’. Raised as a staunch Anglican, most of his works depict the ostensible influence of religion that has hovered over him like a shadow for most part of his life. From ‘Boys Next Door’ to ‘The Birthday Party’ and ‘Bad Seeds’, Nick’s progression as a musician and songwriter was one of phenomenal perseverance and unshakable faith in his own talent. Considered one of the ‘bad boys’ of music in the 20th century, his music continues to enthrall audiences and resonates in the halls of ‘rock’ even today. Recently, in the new millennium, he formed the garage rock band, ‘Grinderman’ that came to be known for its characteristic representation of raw, emotive intensity and thought-provoking lyrics. In the annals of music history, he is identified as one of the primary songwriters of the post-punk era, whose amalgam of blues, rock and gospel supplemented his murky style. Music apart, he released his book, ‘King Ink’ and later ‘King Ink II’ and also briefly acted in films like ‘Wings of Desire’ and ‘Johnny Suede’.
