Free Music Notes for Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!!Free Music Review: Strangely Magnificent Hit: 5 Stars
Most Nick Cave albums have a few great tunes and a lot of not so great stuff on them. He is getting better with age it seems. I think this album is solid all the way thru. The lyrics are as metaphysically astounding as always. A theme runs smoothly from sart to finish. Yes, we're dealing with matters such as death, god, redemption etc. This is not for bubblegum pop conformity cowards. This is where rock should be, on the edge. Nick lures you in with seductive poetic lyrics of taboo expressions and a driving rock beat behind him forcing you to confront new perceptual vantage points in your mind field perspectives. This is a solid product for Nick Cave, I'm really enjoying it.
Free Music Review: Dig a Hole, Fill It Up! Hit: 5 Stars
Another haunting, hilarious masterpeice from Cave and the Bad Seeds. Rich, textured, and complex, this album offers hours of fun, literary references, and songs to make love or revolutions to. Spooky and seductive, Nick's turn with the Grinderman crew has smoothed out some edges and roughed others up in exciting ways. It's so inspiring to watch a natural genius like Cave not only survive but thrive and mature. This record makes me want to say to every 20 and 30-something rock-star "THIS is how it's done!"
Free Music Review: One of My Favorite Cave Albums Hit: 5 Stars
Dig Lazarus Dig!!! is one of my favorite Nick Cave albums. In particular I am fond of the title track, Night of the Lotus Eaters and We Call Upon the Author. The poetic turns of phrase and dark sense of humor are tightly balanced in Cave's most recent outing. It is also interesting to hear how Nick and the Bad Seeds have begun exploring the subtleties of Warren Ellis' electronic loops to great effect. I am very pleased with this album and if you are a fan of Nick Cave, I think you will be too.
Free Music Review: Dirty!!! Hit: 5 Stars
I've bought every Nick Cave album since "The Good son" I've loved most of them. Warren Ellis is all over this one. This album is all about rock. I love the mustache too:) I can't help but laugh to see this in so many top 10's for 2008 along side bands like coldplay and other crap. This is the most "American" album that they have every made. I wonder if that has something to do with it. I hope Nick continues to be as prolific as the last couple years.
Free Music Review: Another fantastic album Hit: 5 Stars
I have to admit that I wasn't impressed the first time I heard this album. I liked the title track well enough, and I enjoyed News From Nowhere, but none of the others impressed me. Every time I listened to the album it grew on me, one song at a time. Now I can't stop listening to it- I absolutely love Jesus of the Moon, Hold on to Yourself, and Lie Down Here. It's one of my favorite albums.
