   it's like the album has its magic that you'll keep on looking back to it and drown yourself in all its awesome songs.

   A little TOO personal. Gushingly so...but Cave's vocals get a 10/10- damn fine; among Cave's best work. Music is OK too; the Seeds are subtler than ever before- but flawless. Lyrics and themes though...are a little complex, and not in a good way. Sure, this album may be a masterpeice of sorts artistically, and yeah, for those willing to put the energy out to get in Cave's head it might be a thought provoking ride, but...when i listen to a Nick cave record, i want it to be for ME, to entertain ME, not have to listen to the incredibly introverted, excruciatingly personal cryptic messages. Give me murder ballads or boatman's call any freaking day- sings like Song of Joy, Black Hair, Far from me...they entertain. You see, that's the point. Still, this album has it's moments- like Sadly by her side and 15feet of pure what snow.… Expand

But hey, his brand new side project, Grinderman, is a return to form. So buy that one instead!… Expand
