Cave, Nick & The Bad Seeds - The Boatman's Call

NEW VINYL LP ON MUTE 2015

180 GRAM VINYL.

Murder Ballads brought Nick Cave's morbidity to near-parodic levels, which makes the disarmingly frank and introspective songs of The Boatman's Call all the more startling. A song cycle equally inspired by Cave's failed romantic affairs and religious doubts, The Boatman's Call captures him at his most honest and despairing -- while he retains a fascination for gothic, Biblical imagery, it has little of the grand theatricality and self-conscious poetics that made his albums emotionally distant in the past. This time, there's no posturing, either from Cave or the Bad Seeds.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Cave_and_the_Bad_Seeds
