Whats your favorite nick cave album? I would have to say murder ballads is mine, due to the fact it was the first one i was exposed to.

But, Tender Prey and Let Love In fall in pretty close behind.]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277695#Comment_277695 2011-01-08T09:36:46-08:00 2013-06-19T16:35:37-07:00 lucien http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=7742

For me it's gotta be Tender Prey, although The Firstborn is Dead and Nocturama are a close joint second. Not really overly fond of the ballad-y ones in the 90s.

Tender Prey, followed by No More Shall We Part. Am very fond of Dig Lazarus Dig too though... and most of the rest.

Shit, man. As a self-proclaimed fan boy, that's a difficult question. I'd probably say From Her to Eternity (It's also my wife's favorite, if you're curious), as there's not a song on it that I even ...

I'm also a huge fan of the first few songs on Tender Prey and like the rest of the album ok in general, love Henry's Dream, both Grinderman albums, and regularly listen to all the others I have as well, which is about 3/4 of them.]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277776#Comment_277776 2011-01-08T16:36:13-08:00 2011-01-08T16:36:23-08:00 Lazarus99 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=3143

Album: Let Love In (although I do love Henry's Dream and Murder Ballads as well) Song: Up Jumped the Devil (which is on Tender Prey)

I think for me it'll depend on my mood. Could be Tender Prey if I'm feeling nostalgic, or Dig Lazarus Dig if I'm more in the present :).
If I had to pick just one It'd be certainly be Dig Lazarus Dig. Which kind of surprises me when I think about it.

I haven't listened to Henry's Dream and Let Love In in a long time though. My choice could be different then, I have really good memories of these two.
And my least favourite album is certainly No More Shall We Part. Not really bad, just annoying (and I love The Good Son, though).

As for favourite song, certainly The Mercy Seat. The Weeping Song would be a close second though...]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277825#Comment_277825 2011-01-08T22:25:37-08:00 2013-06-19T16:35:37-07:00 mrchair http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=9157

Let Love In is classic. Love Dig, Lazarus, Dig!! Lately I've been really enjoying both Grinderman records.

Your Funeral My Trial /Henry's Dream are my joint longterm favourites , although recently I've been listening to this a lot after finaly getting round to watching the film.

I'll put in a vote for Henry's Dream as a damn good album, and other than Mercy Seat & Ship Song, the one Cave track reliably able to utterly unglue me is Loom of the Land.

Henry's Dream is getting despite it being Nick's least favorite album. (Sure shows him, eh?) As soon as I heard "Papa Won't Leave You Henry" (which started out as a lullaby to his kid), I knew the man was mistaken.

It's my understanding, from reading the liner notes, that he basically feels it was overproduced - he was going for something more raw and visceral - a sound he'd heard from street musicians in Rio. Mute wanted him to use an actual producer after the success of "The Good Son", so he brought one in, and things didn't go quite as planned, and he was disappointed in the final result.

Anyway, in my professional opinion as a guy who works at a hotel, Nick Cave is the defining musician of the last 30 years - his work has swung back and forth through different stylistic extremes (look at some of the more subdued stuff vs anything off a Birthday Party album), and yet it never ceases to be Nick Cave's music. I mean, when O Children comes on in Harry Potter, you don't stop and think "Wait...is this...?" It's immediately recognizable - there's something unique about his music. Or maybe I'm just full of crap. I have no idea.]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=278218#Comment_278218 2011-01-11T12:17:00-08:00 2013-06-19T16:35:37-07:00 maelstrom http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=9405
