Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Let Love In, Murder Ballads, The Boatman's Call & No More Shall We Part (CD/DVD reissues) (from adequacy)

Picking up pretty much where 1992's raw, vicious and occasionally romantic Henry's Dream left off, 1994's Let Love In documents the post-1980s Bad Seeds line-up at its most self-assured and democratic. Vivid and kaleidoscopic in its reach, with some of Cave's most enduring standards encased within a variety of musical settings, Let Love In has pretty much everything you could need from a Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds long-player... and then some. From lustful and stormy voodoo swagger ("Do You L......

nick cave and the bad seeds - Dig Lazarus Dig Review (from ultimate-guitar)

Sound: Don't be suprised if at first you're feeling baffled with 'Nick Cave and The bad Seeds' ecclectic mix of instuments and a range of styles from what could only be described as (as much as I hate it) 'experimental' to all out rock. Each song on the album has a different story and theme yet all flow together smoothly. The band has a grand total of 8 members with a combined talent for playing 23 instruments, all of which are exploited to their full effect on this album. So although this album......

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Murder Ballads (from bbc)

Following on from Mute's 2010 reissuing of expanded, audiophile-pleasing, remastered (5.1 and stereo) versions of Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds' Tender Prey, The Good Son and Henry's Dream, the label is giving the band's remaining 90s albums the same treatment. So alongside this fantastic new presentation of 1996's blood-splashed Murder Ballads, fans can pick up new editions of 1994's Let Love In and 97's exquisite The Boatman's Call, as well as 2001's underrated (and post-best of) No More Shall We ......

BAD SEEDS, THE - I'm A King Bee (from Forced Exposure)

The Bad Seeds' story is a familiar one. A product of the youth-fueled sixties rock 'n' roll wave, they enjoyed a meteoric rise on their home turf, the Texas Gulf Coast. For a band whose few records exemplify Texas garage rock at its finest, they didn't last past the summer of '66. But what they did leave behind is indelible: 45 rpm sides that rival the upper echelon Nuggets rock of the era. With an unmistakable sound that mixed-up early Stones with gutty Texas twang, the Bad Seeds put hometown C......

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Let Love In (from pitchfork)

The 1990s were very good to Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. Where the previous decade saw Cave successfully transition out of the Birthday Party's combustible punk toward a more urbane, theatrical brand of rock, the 90s elevated him to the realm of archetype and institution. He successfully party-crashed Hollywood and "Top of the Pops", all while the college-radio charts filled up with emergent artists-- PJ Harvey, Tindersticks, Afghan Whigs-- cut from the Bad Seeds' black-velvet cloth. The Bad See......

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - No More Shall We Part (from bbc)

Hollowed out by the catharsis of 1997's The Boatman's Call, Nick Cave rested his pen for a while. Just over four years would pass before another Bad Seeds long-player saw the light of day. The wait was worth it. No More Shall We Part hasn't the acute heartache of its immediate predecessor, the fire of Tender Prey, or the drama of Murder Ballads; but it is possibly the band's most beautiful record, its enveloping melancholy immediately touching. Warren Ellis' violin work is more pronounced than i......

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - The Boatman's Call (from bbc)

For their 10th album - and follow-up to the cheery Murder Ballads - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds explored more redemptive qualities. Originally released in 1997, gone were the menacing, troubled tunes of yore; instead, here was a selection of graceful, minimal, melancholic numbers that saw Cave reflect on spirituality, loves past and present, and almost atoning for past indiscretions. These are your actual songs of faith and devotion, and by Cave's own admission his most personal album to date. The......

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Album Reissues (from thequietus)

With Nick Cave reportedly ready to return to his day job with the Bad Seeds following his second libidinous swamp rock outing with Grinderman, the (to date) third quarter of his career resurfaces as part of Mute Records' ongoing remasters series of albums by the multi-national ensemble. To revisit these reissues is to confirm and confound one's perception of these four pivotal releases in the canon of Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - a period that saw the band close the book on one chapter of their......

nick cave and the bad seeds - B-Sides & Rarities Review (from ultimate-guitar)

Sound: Nick Cave and the world's greatest backing band return. This B-Sides collection is one of the greatest ever written. Featuring songs written at the "From Her To Eternity" Period right up till today it contains three-discs full of ditties where you go "How did that not make it?" It also features fantastic different versions of previously recorded songs like a fantastic "Mercy Seat." There are also some covers including a classic Leonard Cohen Song. Shane McGowan & Bad Seed violinist/multi-......

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Let Love In (from bbc)

Let Love In, the eighth album by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, is in many ways the group's wholly realised work. Even more than their 1998 Best Of, it stands as the best introduction to the eloquent and elegant netherworld of Godless fornicators, murderers, the bereft and drunk and lonely and lost conjured up by Cave and his suited cohorts. Recorded two years after the flawed (according to the band; many fans regard it as another classic) signpost that was Henry's Dream, and just before the bloody ......

Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Four Reissues (from jambands)

Let Love In/Murder Ballads/The Boatman's Call/No More Shall We Part EMI The four albums released between 1994 and 2001 by Nick Cave and his Bad Seeds rank amongst the most essential in the Australian group's extensive body of work. Bolstered by the classic line-up of Cave, Blixa Bargeld, Martyn B. Casey, Warren Ellis, Mick Harvey, Conway Savage, Jim Sclavunos and Thomas Wylder, this quadrant of titles from this Big Band Bad Seeds era saw them delivering the richest, most dramatic work they ever......

Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Collectors Editions (from clashmusic)

The latest instalment in Mute's reissue programme is an embarrassment of riches, including two of Cave's absolute classics. The tail-end of the raucous and raw initial incarnation of the band is captured on 1994's 'Let Love In', with the genuinely macabre 'Red Right Hand' the standout moment. Before the reflective and reserved majesty of 1997's dazzling 'The Boatman's Call' came 1996's 'Murder Ballads', a curiously light-hearted record about death. It's almost certainly nobody's favourite Cave a......

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Expanded Collectors Editions | Let Love In | Murder Ballads | The Boatman's Call | No More Shall We Part (from thephoenix)

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds: Expanded Collectors Editions | Let Love In (4 stars) | Murder Ballads (3 stars) | The Boatman's Call (3 stars) | No More Shall We Part (3.5 stars) The four classic albums that Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds released between 1994 and 2001 served as a crucial transition. Let Love In (1994), Murder Ballads (1996), The Boatman's Call (1997), and No More Shall We Part (2001) bridged his early post-punk neo-goth pose with his latter-day rebirth as a restrained balladeer. It's......

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - On Fertile Ground (from allaboutjazz)

In recent years, singer and composer Nick Cave has proven to be unstoppable. He has not shown any signs of old age nor any intention to slow down the tempo of new work. He is also reissuing his back catalog. Undoubtedly a gifted poet and composer, above all Cave is a dedicated hard worker. You might say that he is applying for James Brown's empty spot as the hardest working man in show business. Music styles change over the years, with each era producing its own idols. Like other great artists......

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Let Love In, Murder Ballads, The Boatman's Call, No More Shall We Part (reissues) (from drownedinsound)

The initial urge is to be canonical. To state that Let Love In is the last mid-period Bad Seeds record, post-Barry and pre-Warren (although Warren was, in fact, a session musician on a couple tracks). A time when Nick's songs still 'just got thrown to the group' (Mick) as sketches of reckless excess, the lyrical 'tyranny and terror' still visceral enough to be genuinely frightening, the 'love and devotion' too telescopically metaphorical to feel as naked as it would later. And that No More Shall......
