The artist made his announcement through his Red Hand Files website, in which he often directly addresses the questions of his audience.
Cave said the following on the album’s structure & thematic concepts.
“It is a double album.
Part 1 comprises of eight songs.
The Spinning Song
Bright Horses
Waiting For You
Night Raid
Sun Forest
Galleon Ship
Ghosteen Speaks
Leviathan
Part 2 consists of two long songs, linked by a spoken word piece.
Ghosteen
Fireflies
Hollywood
The songs on the first album are the children.
The songs on the second album are their parents.
Ghosteen is a migrating spirit.”
All eyes point toward next Friday then!
