just feel it is time to concentrate on other creative areas in my
life“.Bargeld’s departure will enable him to devote more time to his
varied and expanding list of projects and interests outside of The
Bad Seeds including fronting Einstürzende Neubauten and his
work in film and theatre.Nick Cave says, „We have parted as friends and we will miss
him dearly“.Mick Harvey, also a founding member of the band, adds „Blixa is
