But, Tender Prey and Let Love In fall in pretty close behind. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277695#Comment_277695 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277695#Comment_277695 Sat, 08 Jan 2011 09:36:46 -0800 lucien http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277701#Comment_277701 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277701#Comment_277701 Sat, 08 Jan 2011 10:08:29 -0800 Ninewhilenine83 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277707#Comment_277707 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277707#Comment_277707 Sat, 08 Jan 2011 11:08:42 -0800 Alastair http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277714#Comment_277714 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277714#Comment_277714 Sat, 08 Jan 2011 11:31:00 -0800 JP Carpenter http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277720#Comment_277720 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277720#Comment_277720 Sat, 08 Jan 2011 11:39:37 -0800 Ninewhilenine83
I'm also really fond of Dig, Lazarus Dig!!! too, although pretty much everyone I know seems to have thought it was tripe. I must admit that the breaks in "We Call Upon the Author" didn't make much sense 'til I saw it live. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277774#Comment_277774 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277774#Comment_277774 Sat, 08 Jan 2011 16:33:36 -0800 sacredchao
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 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277776#Comment_277776 Sat, 08 Jan 2011 16:36:13 -0800 Lazarus99 Song: Up Jumped the Devil (which is on Tender Prey) ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277822#Comment_277822 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277822#Comment_277822 Sat, 08 Jan 2011 21:40:03 -0800 oscillateur
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 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277825#Comment_277825 Sat, 08 Jan 2011 22:25:37 -0800 mrchair http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277853#Comment_277853 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277853#Comment_277853 Sun, 09 Jan 2011 04:57:41 -0800 Andy-E

Murder Ballads if I'm going for "album I like the most." The first pushes all the right buttons (except for a couple songs which are a bit wanky to me) and the second just makes me giggle uncontrollably. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277922#Comment_277922 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277922#Comment_277922 Sun, 09 Jan 2011 15:44:20 -0800 Cat Vincent 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. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277941#Comment_277941 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277941#Comment_277941 Sun, 09 Jan 2011 19:36:16 -0800 muse hick http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277986#Comment_277986 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=277986#Comment_277986 Mon, 10 Jan 2011 05:52:45 -0800 sacredchao 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 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=278218#Comment_278218 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 12:17:00 -0800 maelstrom ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=278231#Comment_278231 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=278231#Comment_278231 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 13:01:58 -0800 screaming meat http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=278349#Comment_278349 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=278349#Comment_278349 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 09:15:57 -0800 therealdmj http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=278362#Comment_278362 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9391&Focus=278362#Comment_278362 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 10:03:52 -0800 AtomicSloth I love them all but due to this thread I decided to get The Boatman's Call.
