Free Music Review: the coming of age album
Hit: 5 Stars

whilst i write this review with the benefit of having observed how nick caves's music has developed since the release of this,the "good son" album,is it with a feeling of justification that the album is described as the coming of age album.
yes,indeed,prior to this album,there has been so many glimpses of cave's obsession with love,death and sorrow (but mostly love in all its manifestations).
on this album,from the opening track,"fois na cruz" with the sad tale of love lost,(love came knocking,when sadly she didnt live there any more),is the scene set for an experience in what it means to love, to hurt and to lose in love.if one bears in mind that cave addressed universities and scholars on the subject of the love poem,does it make all the more sense.
as is to be expected, the music on this album is some of the best work produced by the bad seeds and contributes in exemplary fashion to the album's mood.
it is extremely difficult to identify any given track as the standout track on this album,but the opener,"sorrow's child","come sail ur ships around me" and "the weeping song" atand along side any of cave's finest work.
