Nick Cave & Bryce Dessner have shared a new song, “Train Dreams”, for the new film of the same name directed by Clint Bentley.
“Train Dreams” features Joel Edgerton as a railroad labourer, alongside Felicity Jones and William H. Macy, and it adapts Denis Johnson’s 2011 novella.
Director Clint Bentley shared this about the song: “When we started thinking about making a song for the film, Nick felt like the perfect artist to do it. It turns out that Train Dreams is one of his all-time favorite books, but he initially feared there wouldn’t be time to do something because he was getting ready to go on tour. Then he watched the film and was inspired to write something and the whole thing came together really quickly. I knew he would craft something beautiful and resonant, but the film has such a delicate tone at the end, one that was really hard to get right, and I didn’t want a song that would push the audience in another direction emotionally. But Nick and I were very much on the same page from the outset. He read some early lyrics to me that he was working on and I was just really a bit overwhelmed with the whole situation, I’ve been a fan of his for such a long time and there I was, not only having a really lovely conversation with him about life and art, but he was also reading lyrics to me that he was writing for a film I made. It was a really special moment. He’s a very rare artist and one I admire immensely. There’s no one thing that defines a Nick Cave song sonically, lyrically, or otherwise. He’s got songs about everything, all the varieties of our experience here. There’s a deep poeticism alongside rock and roll. And that just felt like the perfect fit for a film like this that’s telling the story of this person who lived a beautiful resonant life, even if it did include heartache and pain.”
Hannah Frances has shared the first single, “Surviving You”, off her upcoming album “Nested In Tangles” out October 10th via Fire Talk.

Hannah Frances shared this about the album: “It’s a personal account of receiving harm from people who have projected their own pain onto me, who refuse to see themselves or take accountability for the impact of their actions. I was reckoning with my rage, and recognizing how much I’ve lived in survival mode for the majority of my life. This is for anyone who grew up in a turbulent and harmful home and is learning to affirm their lived experience.”
Black Eyes have shared the first single, “Pestilence”, off their upcoming album “Hostile Design” out October 10th via Dischord.

The band shared this about the album: “The album was written over fifteen months, between August 2023 and November 2024, and was recorded at Tonal Park studios over three days, with Ian MacKaye resuming his role as producer and Don Godwin engineering. The instrumentation returns to Cough’s two drums, bass, guitar and sax lineup, but adds some fresh elements: live multichannel dubbing, now a standard of our shows, has been integrated into the performances, as have electronic drum triggers and samples as well as the occasional bass clarinet passage.”
