“From Her to Eternity” by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

The title track of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' 1984 debut album, "From Her to Eternity" was cut in March of that year at Trident Studios in London, with Flood recording, mixing and producing alongside the band. Cave wrote the words with Anita Lane, and the music is credited to Cave, Barry Adamson, Blixa Bargeld, Mick Harvey and Hugo Race.

Cave sings lead and works a Hammond organ, Bargeld and Race play guitar, Adamson plays bass, and Harvey covers both drums and piano. It's an assault, and Mat Snow heard it that way: a piano figure as cold and sharp as a surgeon's blade slicing into trauma, backed by a pileup of breakdown, electrocution and massacre that keeps climbing until it sounds like a man tormenting himself into the grave.
