Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds kicked off their UK tour last night (November 23) with a ferocious and noisy show at the Brighton Centre.

With a large proportion of the set drawn from the band’s recent album, “Dig!!! Lazarus, Dig!!!”, the band began their set with “Hold On To Yourself” and the record’s primitive title track.
