More than just a page from the continuing saga of Nick Cave's evolution from hypermasculine goth punk to perpetual existential crisis. This album is the pinnacle of post-punk nihilism and a channel for our inner depravity, served up unceremoniously on a growling, grimy platter. Nice cover art, too.
