Stonking? Please: for the Americans, define that word?This one is that rara avis - a prefect 10.
Sonically, it has never sounded better to me and the 5.1 mix is absolutely stonking.
Obvious highlights are "Where The Wild Roses Grow" with the delicious Kylie assisting her fellow colonial on vocals & looking gorgeous in that water.....wet silk & Kylie....I think it might be cold shower time, but I digress.....
As Christopher says, not an album to play in front of children - but the best single sentence to describe this is quite simply "What's not to like?"
Not a "perfect" disc for me, but very close. Certainly a really enjoyable listen. Still trying to decide whether I prefer this one or "The Good Son" as they both stood out as the better two of the four Nick Cave discs I recently purchased (but "Tender Prey" is a close bronze medalist for sure).This one is that rara avis - a prefect 10.

Difficult choice for sure - I can recommend "Nocturama" highly (especially the 15 minute epic "Babe, I'm On Fire" that closes this) or the double album "Abbatoir Blues/Lyre Of Orpheus".Now the question remains, which ones to buy next? There are still a lot of them out there to buy, not to mention all of the other high-res discs floating around that I have yet to catch…![]()
"Nocturama" sounds like the choice for me out of those 2, but I may go for some of the others first, as they are currently selling for a slightly cheaper price on amazon.Difficult choice for sure - I can recommend "Nocturama" highly (especially the 15 minute epic "Babe, I'm On Fire" that closes this) or the double album "Abbatoir Blues/Lyre Of Orpheus".
I like them all a lot - very under rated.
