 (6 Customer Reviews)
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds includes: Nick Cave, Mick Harvey, Blixa Bargeld, Barry Adamson, Anita Lane, Edward Clayton-Jones, Hugo Race, Thomas Wydler, Kid Congo Powers, Roland Wolf, Martyn P. Casey, Conway Savage, Jim Sclavunos, Warren Ellis.
Given Nick Cave's history of great songs but uneven albums, THE BEST OF NICK CAVE & THE BAD SEEDS truly lives up to its name, condensing his most intriguing songs into one excellent collection. Though it lacks a chronological sequence, the seemingly random track listing works surprisingly well, from the opening Van Morrison-gone-bad raucousness of "Deanna" to the final chaotic blast of "From Her to Eternity."
Though the compilation highlights Cave's penchant for morbid narratives, it also includes disarmingly sincere ballads like "Into My Arms," "Are You the One That I've Been Waiting For?," and "Straight to You," with the Bad Seeds providing unusually subtle backing. Cave's trademark dark theatricality is still at the fore, however, on bleak yet driving songs such as "The Mercy Seat," "Tupelo," "Do You Love Me?," and, of course, the sinister classic "Red Right Hand."

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Dark and Brilliant
Excellent album. At once dark and touching, you cant be indiferent with songs like "Into my arms", "The carny", "Do you love me?".
To listen this is an experience for every person who loves music, and who loves the independent creations of a complete artist like Nick Cave.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No this cd rules
this is not, in fact a "best of" nick cave. instead this is a collection of his later more lyrical and straightforward work. now toward the end of his career cave's work has actually included singing, not yelling, as he is known for, and its pretty, almost choral. but the lyrics are just as metaphysical and crazy as usual, you can still expect murderous lovesongs. thank god for that/

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  Not a typical compilation.
One thing that i noticed when i first listened to this album is that i does not feel like a compilation, instead it feels like a regular album. But at the same time there are a lot of songs that you need to hear that is not on this record. Don`t buy it as a definitive collection of his work, just buy it as a great record.

$13.89
After a three-year hiatus, Eleventh Dream Day is back with another solid album, Stalled Parade, with a slightly broader sonic palette than its predecessor, Eighth. Don't worry, Rick Rizzo's overdriven guitars are still generally set for stun, but you can hear a little more in the way of acoustic guitars throughout the record, and Janet Beveridge Bean steps up to sing lead vocals on a few tracks. One of these, "Valrico74," strongly evokes "Cloak of Frogs" from Freakwater's End time, but Rizzo's atmospheric guitar plonking and John McEntire's understated keyboards give it a flavor all its own. The way this slow, haunting track gives way to the out and out Crazy Horse-isms of "In the Style Of...." is indicative of the effective pacing of Stalled Parade overall, eliciting a wide range of moods and tempos from track to track. The ethereal ...
