Album Review: Supergroup Bleak Squad – Mick Turner (Dirty Three, Mess Esque), Mick Harvey (Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, PJ Harvey, The Birthday Party), Adalita (Magic Dirt) and Marty Brown (Art of Fighting) – gather together to brew the spectacular ‘Strange Love’. Naarm/Melbourne’s gothic noir Bleak Squad consists of living legends Mick Turner (Dirty Three, Mess Esque), Mick Harvey (Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, PJ Harvey, The Birthday Party), Adalita (Magic Dirt) and Marty Brown (Art of Fighting) today release the fruits of their collaboration with 'Strange Love' - a dark brooding collection of visceral and raw vignettes worthy of their genetic make up. Adalita says of this murder of crows that is Bleak Squad: I think the name Bleak Squad speaks to both this loose collection of misfits. And the noirish mood of our music.
