Dig lazarus didn't do much for me however, maybe i will give it another go.

Keep listening! I'm not going to make the fine wine cliché but, you catch my drift.

So many infectious songs. Listening to this i'm wondering why i've never really bothered with Nick Cave before, (all i have apart from this is the last double album and the Grinderman album).
The title track will not get out of my head. Grr.
My other highlights are Today's Lesson and Lie Down Here. Proper blues songs, just like with Grinderman it's the sound of a load of guys in the studio putting down some great jams and having a good time.

Jesus Of The Moon is the clear stand-out to me. Not that the others songs aren't good, but ****, that's easily on my top 50 playlist.

There, see - what I love about this album is that EVERYBODY has different songs as their favourites and the ones they cite as the "content" tracks of the album. That is a clear indication of just how much merit is in this record. You know when nobody can agree upon which songs are the standouts that you are dealing with true greatness.

I think it'll be in the top 10 of the year for me.

Moonland is pretty fooking awesome.

I was disappointed w/this record, as I thought he was trying to be too "poppy" with it. I was hoping it was more old school.

I never quite understand what it is people want from Nick Cave.
All his stuff should be appreciated.

Somebody tell me how one of these is better than the other.
