With The Bad Seeds, YES.

There should be two pages: Nick Cave and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.

Actually, just adding the Bad Seeds to this page would be sufficient. Nick Cave has never really done anything of note under just his own name.

The Birthday Party, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, Grinderman and Nick Cave & Warren Ellis are the names of the acts that he created notable work with as a member.

This entry should read Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.

Nick Cave's US network television debut, (10 years into the Bad Seeds' career) on Letterman, but Paul Shaffer was a Bad Seed for the night. That amuses me in a good way.

AcclaimedMusic.net lists them at number 28. I think they should get in for their longevity and consistency. Hopefully in the next couple of years.

Nick Cave and the Bad seeds should definitely have a spot in the Rock and Roll hall of fame. They are one of the most eccentric and eclectic bands of our time.
