    It's hilarious, chilling and exhilarating: further evidence of the unique and enviable position Cave finds himself in at 50.

    Musically, the album is a triumph from first to last.

    For all its foreboding themes, Dig, Lazarus Dig!!! is melodically accessible and a very neutrally pop album. [Spriung 2008, p.74]

    I thought this record was amazing the first time I listened to it. It's even better the 150th time. Every track on the record is, well... perfect. EVERYONE should have this!… Expand

    This a very bland album - I think critics and fans are so enamoured with Cave that he can't do no wrong. While this isn't wrong, it certainly isn't Abbatoir Blues/Lyre of Orpheus, No More Shall We Part or Let Love In. Like Nocturama, DLD lacks passion and a sense of urgency that CAve has something he wants to tell us.… Expand
