12th studio album proceeding the supremely crafted "Murder Ballads" and "The Boatman's Call. The dramatic procession of Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds enters a new phase in 2003. The supremely crafted albums which came out towards the close of the century, "Murder Ballads" and "The Boatman's Call", affirmed what many have known since the band formed out of the ashes of Australian legends The Birthday Party in 1983: as an expressive force The Bad Seeds are entirely in a class of their own, and Cave is one of the few truly great, genuinely maverick songwriters and performers of the present day.
