180g Vinyl Reissue of Fourth Album from Nick & the Seeds!
A series of Nick Cave albums reissued on vinyl in the years 2014 and 2015 includes this fourth album in the first round. Also included in the first batch of reissues are "The Firstborn Is Dead," "From Her to Eternity," and "Kicking Against the Pricks."
Your Funeral My Trial is the fourth studio album by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, released on November 3, 1986 by Mute Records. Your Funeral... My Trial was originally released as a double EP. During this period in his life, Cave was steeped in heroin addiction, perhaps evidenced by the melancholy, desperate mood of this album.
Cave later said, "That particular record, which is my favorite of the records we've done, is very special to me and a lot of amazing things happened, musically, in the studio. There are some songs on that record that as far as I'm concerned are just about perfect as we can get really- songs like "The Carny," "Your Funeral, My Trial," and "Stranger Than Kindness," I think are really quite brilliant."
"Trial shows the Seeds working as, again, a remarkably accomplished and varied act, ever available and ready to explore a wide range of music distilled into Cave's often dark, always passionate vision. Arguably Cave and company have by now so clearly established their overall style that Your Funeral...My Trial is much more a refinement of the past than anything else, but so good is their work that resistance is near impossible." -Ned Raggett, allmusic.com
