Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds have released a book which focuses on their latest album. The book, 'DIG, LAZARUS, DIG!!!: The Book' is "a strictly limited edition, hard back, four inch square book, forty-six pages long, with three inch CD inside with the track 'Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!'."

This book contains handwritten lyrics and notes from Nick Cave, photos and the story of the song ‘Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!’, along with an interview with Nick, and artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster about their story along with pictures of Sue and Tim working on creating the installation artwork for the front cover of the 'Dig...' album. All the material is not available anywhere else and has been "specifically put together by Nick for this book."


For further information check out the book on Mute Bank or Amazon

The group will be touring North America in September, as previously reported.
