Lull Magazine – “Nick Cave” – Issue #9, March 2003 – Turkish Edition

Description:

Lull was an independent Turkish culture, arts, and music magazine published in the early 2000s, focusing on alternative music, cinema, literature, and popular culture. Through in-depth interviews, album reviews, and cultural commentary, it explored international music scenes and introduced Turkish readers to influential artists, experimental sounds, and alternative cultural movements beyond the mainstream.

This Turkish-language issue, dated March 2003, is the ninth issue of Lull and features Australian musician and songwriter Nick Cave on the cover. The magazine explores Cave’s musical journey with The Bad Seeds and his development as one of alternative rock’s distinctive voices. Other music features examine Blondie’s rise in the punk and new wave scenes, Deborah Harry’s iconic image, and the success of their album Parallel Lines. The issue also looks at Asian Dub Foundation’s political outlook and their fusion of drum and bass with punk influences, alongside the nostalgic, atmospheric electronic sound of Boards of Canada.

Further coverage explores The Strokes and their place in the New York rock revival, including their recording process and internal band dynamics. Massive Attack’s album 100th Window receives attention for its evolving electronic sound and guest vocalists, while another feature examines Zwan, the band formed by Billy Corgan after Smashing Pumpkins, and their album Mary Star of the Sea. Combining punk, new wave, electronic music, trip-hop, and alternative rock, this issue reflects Lull’s eclectic editorial approach to music and culture in the early 2000s.
