Wild God

A massive, joyful explosion of gospel-tinged art rock. Shimmering choirs and driving piano arrangements signal a triumphant return to maximalist soundscapes.

It sounds like Nick Cave finally found the light and decided to throw a massive, orchestral party about it.

A triumphant and spiritually charged celebration of life that emerges from the shadows of grief.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The explosive entry of the choir and drums on the title track, marking a sudden shift from a whisper to a roar.
The way the spoken-word phone recording at the end of O Wow O Wow grounds the celestial production in human memory.
The relentless, driving repetition of the word 'conversion' as the song builds into a chaotic, ecstatic wall of sound.
