Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds are back after a five-year break with their new album Wild God! Across ten tracks, the band dances between convention and experimentation, taking left turns and detours that enhance the rich imagery and emotion in Cave's heartfelt narratives. There are moments that fondly recall the Bad Seeds' past, but they are fleeting and only serve to add another facet to the band's relentless and restless forward momentum. Nick Cave says of the album: "It bursts out of the speaker, and I get swept up with it. It's a complicated record, but it's also deeply and joyously infectious."

Produced by Cave and Warren Ellis and mixed by David Fridmann, Cave began writing the album on New Year's Day 2023. Recording in Provence and London, the Bad Seeds finally added their unique alchemy, with additional appearances from Colin Greenwood (bass) and Luis Almau (nylon string guitar, acoustic guitar).

"Wild God…there's no fucking around with this record. When it hits, it hits. It lifts you. It moves you. I love that about it." - Nick Cave

Critical reaction to Wild God was overwhelmingly positive. Metacritic gave the album a score of 91/100, which the website categorised as "universal acclaim".[9] Alexis Petridis, writing in The Guardian, gave Wild God five stars, stating "this masterpiece will make you fall back in love with life." Highlighting the unusually joyous nature of a Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds album, he observed songs that "frequently surge into vast, ecstatic exhalations" with "Cave's extemporised vocal sounding increasingly rapturous over the top." He concluded, "Packed with remarkable songs, its mood of what you might call radical optimism is potent and contagious. You leave it feeling better than you did previously: an improving experience, in the best sense of the phrase."

The Independent also gave the album five stars noting how Cave frequently "swings between doubt and faith." They observed that "Melodies flood through the music and then disappear like currents. Wild God can feel fathomless, but it leaves you buoyant."

The NME praised the record as the band's most upbeat offering in decades but still "coloured with the many shades of a life so challenging and weathered." They awarded the album 9/10, reserving particular praise for the song O Wow O Wow (How Wonderful She Is), describing it as one of Cave's "most masterful love songs" and ranking it alongside Into My Arms.
