Whether or not this is my favorite Cave release, I can still say for sure that I love it unconditionally number one, and number two, it's been with me in my life for as long as I can remember. While beginning to explore the music on my own accord, I came to this album and was shocked to know just how much of it was with me already. All these little organ melodies found throughout the tracks are all so nostalgic, and I guess I'd grown up hearing them all the time.

Sometimes before going to listen to this album I'll forget about all that, and then take another trip down memory lane.

It's one of my favs probably, from the band. A really solid and effective offering of folky post-punk/blues stuff, not as experimental as previous outputs and entirely memorable, musically and lyrically, for fans of all kinds of music
Absolutely love the bones off that album. It and The Good Son were the first two Cave albums I ever purchased, followed quickly by Let Love In. Special.
