Free Music Review: Let Nick in! (It's cold and there are wolves...)
Hit: 5 Stars
There is no Nick but Nick. "Let Love In" also belongs in the running for best Bad Seeds album and, again, I'd stack it against "From Her to Eternity" but place a bet both ways. "Red Right Hand" (featured briefly in an episode of X-Files--wouldn't you just know it was the psycho-killer's theme song) features some tremendous instrumentals, as well as the usual killer lyrics. "Jangling Jack" is another "damn it all, I've been shot in a bar" song of the sort for which Nick seems to be developing quite an affection. "Lay Me Low" finds Nick apparently reflecting on his own reputation once more, noting ruefully that once he's gone, the reporters will end up "talking to his brother who will tell them of some long-gone lover that [he] hardly knows." The opening line of "Let Love In" sums up the whole business of romantic entanglement in 16 tidy words: "despair and deception, love's ugly little twins, came a-knocking at my door, I let them in." This album completely lacks a non-quotable song, but it's only fair to allow some individual discoveries. Buy it, listen to it, live it. For one must love everything Nick is, and almost everything he does.
