Fifteen Feet Of Pure White Snow
"Fifteen Feet of Pure White Snow," the second single from Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds' deep No More Shall We Part, once again showcases Cave's distinct poetic gift—as well as the beautiful sounds the very good Bad Seeds can conjure. A gothic, gospel-inflected tale of natural disaster—with its "Oh,
my Lord" refrain ringing like a plea from the very edge— "Fifteen Feet of Pure White Snow" manages to evoke a dramatic, detail-rich world, even within the constraints of a radio edit. Of course, nothing on American radio sounds quite like this, and bolder stations will surely benefit from the color that the song and Cave's voice would bring to the airwaves. A calling card for Cave's September/October tour of the States with the Bad Seeds.—BB
