Holy crap.....I finally got around to picking up Murder Ballads by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. This is officially my favoritest album ever. I'd heard a couple of his songs before and really liked them, but this...this is shockingly good. "Where the Wild Roses Grow" is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. And Stagger Lee....The Curse of Milhaven...Song of Joy...stunning. This is the first CD I've bought that contains ONLY excellent songs. I like it so much I refuse to go to sleep so I can keep listening to it.
Wow.
Wow.
