I can definitely recommend the following:
The Good Son
Henry's Dream
Let Love In
No More Shall We Part


I happen to love The Boatman's Call, but yes, it is generally low-key and quite monotonous so I could see how some people might not like it. And you're spot-on with the Waits comparison: I also feel this to be the case, though Waits tends to view things more though a beer glass (for his writing) or through grimy windows, whereas Cave is I feel a bit more detached, a bit more clinical and nihilistic in his lyrics.
