"The End..." is the fourth studio album by German musician Nico. Recorded during the summer of 1974 at Sound Techniques studio in London, the album was produced by John Cale. It was released in November 1974 on the Island Records label.
Nico, known for her distinctive deep voice and association with Andy Warhol's The Velvet Underground, crafted "The End..." as a departure from her earlier works. The album blends elements of avant-garde, folk, and chamber music, reflecting Cale's experimental production style and Nico's introspective lyrics.
Despite its critical acclaim for its unique sound and somber atmosphere, "The End..." did not achieve significant commercial success upon its release. Over time, however, it has gained recognition as one of Nico's seminal works, appreciated for its haunting melodies and evocative themes.
