The prophet is the voice that fills the silence between the lightning and the thunder: he is a hooded snake, mad and sensual, with the face of a vampire worn out by thirst. Twenty years after its release, The Firstborn Is Dead remains, in my opinion, one of Nick Cave’s most poignant and beautiful frescoes.

Dive into Nick Cave’s haunting blues journey with The Firstborn Is Dead and experience a raw, poetic musical masterpiece.
The album opens with 'Tupelo', introduced and concluded by the sound of pouring rain that explicitly represents the climate and mood, fatalistic and hallucinatory, of the entire work. 'Knockin’ on Joe' is a piercing blues, capable of penetrating the darkest depths and recesses of the soul.

This album, for me, is not an album... it has never been, really... but don’t misunderstand me... more than an album, for me it’s always been a fresco... a sound fresco... decadent poetry and melody... pain and dark sounds... Nick Cave is the painter... the Bad Seeds are his colors... the canvas, the poems of love and death that trace the path... and you? well, you are the timid observer...
