Both bands were on the bill at the festival in Gothenburg on Friday (August 14), with Cave and co. delivering a two-hour set on the Azalea stage not long before The Cure topped the bill on the Flamingo stage to round out the night with a huge, career-spanning show.
Bad Seeds multi-instrumentalist Warren Ellis later shared a carousel of photos and videos from the night, including one of the Bad Seeds watching The Cure together with their crew.
Cave wrote about his own affection for The Cure in June, when responding to a fan question about “the worst thing about having become a really old rockstar” on his blog The Red Hand Files.
He recalled meeting an elderly couple wearing matching Cure T-shirts in Odense, Denmark, who asked him for a selfie but struggled to operate their phone.
Depois de se ver na foto resultante, Cave concluiu que a única diferença real entre ele e esses velhos com dentadura sorrindo para a câmera ao lado dele é que ele pinta o cabelo de preto.
Cave also discussed his relationship with goth culture in his 2023 interview with NME. “I think the goths have endured in a way,” he said.
The Cure’s current festival tour follows the release of their 2024 comeback album ‘Songs Of A Lost World‘, their first studio record in 16 years. It earned them the first Grammys of their career.
Smith has since said the follow-up is complete, while another more “poppy” record is also being developed.
They will also play at Manchester’s Wythenshawe Park on Friday (August 21), followed by Edinburgh Summer Sessions on Sunday (August 23). Find more information here.
The Bad Seeds, meanwhile, played for nearly 50,000 people at Brighton’s Preston Park last week, which was “the largest ticketed event in Brighton’s history. It included an appearance from Kylie Minogue on ‘Where The Wild Roses Grow’, while they also played a stripped-back show on the roof of Resident Records earlier in the day.
