Music Reviews

Editorial Reviews

Rolling Stone (p.86) - 3 stars out of 5 - "[T]he Bad Seeds summon a torrent of noise both awful and exquisite. It's a gothic alt-squall that pokes fun at itself yet remains decidedly creepy." Spin (p.118) - "The pile-driving ABATTOIR BLUES disc of this double album opens with one of the greatest songs of Cave's 26-year career, 'Get Ready For Love'..." - Grade: B Entertainment Weekly (p.69) - "[Cave] remains a singular sensation." - Grade: A- Uncut (p.113) - 4 stars out of 5 - "[W]oozy lust anthems and quasi-biblical junk-blues eruptions. With this feast of fearsome rock'n'soul, Beelzebub's favourite lounge singer has returned to claim his throne." Uncut (p.75) - Ranked #13 in Uncut's "Best New Albums of 2004" - "Cave roared back to deliver not one but two albums of fiery genius." Alternative Press (p.158) - "[T]hey're spending middle age churning out the best music of their career....Alternating between funky and uplifting, the Seeds turn these rants into devotionals, finding the prayer that's always lurked beneath the blasphemy of Cave's best work..." - 5 out of 5 Magnet (p.94) - "[T]he songs are steeped in blood, loneliness and hard redemption." Living Blues (p.71) - "[T]he musical equivalent of a hurricane, as guitars, drumbeats, and angelic gospel singers swirl around Cave's demanding, demonstrative voice." Mojo (Publisher) (p.57) - Ranked #73 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "[I]t's a perfect blend of rumbling, bilious rock and ancient folk themes cleaving true to the uniquely skewed gyroscope at the centre of Cave's music." Mojo (Publisher) (p.94) - 5 stars out of 5 - "Both ABATTOIR BLUES and THE LYRE OF ORPHEUS are stuck all over with burr-like catches and hooks, so warmly intimate The Bad Seeds might have set up in the corner of the room....The scope and breadth is startling..."
