Push The Sky Away is the fifteenth studio album by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. The heart of the album is a naturalism and warmth that makes it the most subtly beautiful of all the Bad Seeds albums.
The contemporary settings of myths, and the cultural references that have time-stamped Nick's songs of the twenty-first century mist lightly through details drawn from the life he observed around his seaside home, through the tall windows on the album's mysterious and ambiguous cover.
The album has a clarity and sweet strangeness that's built upon the refusal to accept limitations, whether they be the traditional uses and sounds of musical instruments, lyric styles, or diminished spiritual horizons.
