Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds was originally formed in late 1983 by two former members of the Australian band The Birthday Party: Nick Cave (vocals, songwriter, keyboards, harmonica) and Mick Harvey (drums, guitar, bass, keyboards, occasional songwriter). The name of the new project indicated the shift in Cave's role from lead singer — as in The Birthday Party — to band leader, and coincided with his shift in songwriting style from expressionism to detailed lyrical narrative.

Cave and Harvey were joined by a semi-fluid group of bandmates, initially including Einstürzende Neubauten member Blixa Bargeld (guitar), Hugo Race (guitar), and former Magazinemember Barry Adamson (guitar, bass, piano). After some studio work, the band's debut public performance was held on New Year's Eve 1983 in Melbourne, under the name Nick Cave – Man Or Myth? and was followed by a short tour, even though the band was "in the wilderness" and without management. The band then briefly performed under the name Nick Cave and the Cavemen before adopting the "Bad Seeds" moniker, in reference to the final Birthday Party release, The Bad Seed EP. Soon after their final name change, the group recorded their debut album, From Her to Eternity, which released in 1984, and was quickly followed by Race's departure from the group.
