Advantages: The "best" of nick cave and the bad seeds, Cave's vocals, great songs, wonderful lyrics Disadvantages: Some "bad" songs
NickCave and the Bad seeds put their best songs together on an album and this is what we end up with. A sixteen track CD, wich has songs dating right through their career together (almost). Cave got with the Bad seeds in 1984 and this album goes as far back as that an all the way upto 1997 (The boatmans call). The album takes songs from each of the albums in this time peroid (though as the inlay booklet confess, not in chronological order).
Cave and the bad seeds, have been described as being "Post-punk", "alt-rock" and "rock" all of these and more could be used to explain the bands sounds. Caves deep vocals as well as the musical arrangements which spand from simple to incredibly difficult, mixed with the dark and deep lyrics, allow this album to be a show case of NickCave and The Bad Seeds.
So the songs list from their rather ...
Advantages: Great lyrics, Great songs, Great Concept, Great Album Disadvantages: You will become a lifelong fan of Cave, costing money,
Murder Ballads is possibly NickCave and the Bad Seeds most well known album, partly thanks to the duet with Kylie Minogue, but mainly because it is one of the greatest albums ever released.

When you take into account that all these tales are completely seperate, it is amazing how well the album flows together. The heavier tracks such as "The ...
Advantages: Some Outstanding Tunes, some of Caves best works Disadvantages: takes time to grow on you
NickCave is probably one of the most critically aclaimed song writers of our era - and not without reason. Ever since his days with The Birthday Party he has been releasing album after album of stunning songs. Coming across like a dirtier Tom Waits at times (if that is possible?) and at others bringing you some beautiful love songs - he has always been moving forward creatively with his music.
The Lyre Of Orpheus / Abattoir Blues continues this journey. Double albums usually prove to be notoriously difficult to pull off, but this is definitely not a problem for Mr. Cave and his Bad Seeds. Each disc is packed with stunning stories of love, australian life, and even a spot of murder to keep the old school fans happy. It also provides Nick with one of his most commercial outings yet - in the form of first single from the album, "There ...
