I got into Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds a couple of months ago. Started out with Murder Ballads and then just listened to all their records. I like Let Love In, Tender Prey and The Boatmans Call the most. But almost every record is great.

I love The Birthday Party and the Grinderman-stuff too. Grinderman album is in my top 10 for this years greatest records.

my favorite bad seeds records is kicking against the pricks but tender prey and no more shall we part is close. the bad seeds ep is my favorite birthday party record.

Ditto.

Junkyard!

The good son

To me it's draw between:

(I absolutely love this cover, his innocent face is priceless!)
and

(Hate this cover)

Obvious, I know but well-deserved.

Probably some live recording. Seriously, they never sucked live as far as I can tell. Even the lackluster albums (Murder Ballads, Nocturama, And No More, Lyre/Abbatoir) shine when the show begins and Cave gets all wired and insane and the band locks into place. Breathtaking stuff.

Otherwise, it's like a nine way tie or something.

I didn't really like Dig Lazarus Dig much at all.

Junkyard's depravedly exhilirating.

Grindermans's degradingly gratifying.

Love both those LPs, iow.

I really can't get along with his voice.

I have The Birthday Party's Hits compilation, From Her to Eternity and the Bad Seeds' Best of. I want The Good Son, and maybe Tender Prey. But nothing of his seems to stand out to me. I'm more of a Rowland S Howard person.

i luv from her to eternity.
i luv that song saint huck

i am from the same city that nick cave comes from (melbourne)
and is he really famous in whatever country u live????????????
coz hes really really famous here

two favorites are The Birthday Party - Junkyard, and 'Tender Prey', w/ the Bad Seeds.
