Cave’s music is generally characterised by emotional intensity, a wide variety of influences and lyrical obsessions with death, religion, love and violence.
The 1990s saw Cave move between São Paulo (where he met Viviane) and England.
Cave went on to achieve mainstream success with quieter, piano-driven ballads, notably the Kylie Minogue duet “Where the Wild Roses Grow” (1996), and “Into My Arms” (1997).
Turning increasingly to film in the 2000s, Cave wrote the Australian Western The Proposition (2005), composing its soundtrack with frequent collaborator Warren Ellis.
The pair’s film score credits include The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007), The Road (2009) and Lawless (2012), and their garage rock side project Grinderman has released two LPs since 2006.
In 2009, Cave released his second novel The Death of Bunny Munro, and starred in the semi-fictional “day in the life” film 20,000 Days on Earth (2014).
