Official live music video for “DISEASE” by The Tiger Lillies from a new album LESSONS IN NIHILISM PREORDER: The post-punk pioneers the Tiger Lillies present a new album on a theme which has always run through their work - the meaninglessness and absurdity of existence. Brimming with wit, wisdom and humanity they argue that all our achievements will come to nothing - like throwing stones into a pond, the effects of our actions will only ripple away into nothingness. Martyn Jacques says: “One of the big words used to describe us has always been nihilists. I checked Google to see if anyone has given lessons in nihilism. It appears nobody has. It is considered a philosophy though actual definitions seem to vary as to what it actually is. Some people seem to think it’s bad, for others it’s fine. Anyway it seemed like as good a title as any to write a new collection of songs on. And when it’s your 50th album you do need to find some kind of excuse to write another one.“ The first 300 copies will numbered and signed by the band.
