finally demonstrate what the fuss is all about". Holly George-Warren of Rolling Stone praised the album as "provocative – albeit harrowing – music". However, The Village Voice critic Robert Christgau, in a negative assessment, wrote that "if this is your idea of great writing, you may be ripe for his cult. Otherwise, forget it—the voice alone definitely won't do the trick." In a retrospective review, AllMusic's Ned Raggett noted that the album "showed the band in fierce and fine fettle once more" and described Cave's lyrics as "a series of striking, compelling lyrics again exploring love, lust and death", adding that the songs "showcase the Seeds' peerless abilities at fusing older styles with noisy aggression and tension" and citing "Loom of the Land" as "one of Cave's best songs ever". The remastered edition of Henry's Dream was also well received. BBC Music reviewer Mike Diver referred to the album, and the remaster of Tender Prey (1988), as "anything but poor albums" and said that even without former member Roland Wolf "the instrumentation loses little of its potency, and religious imagery remains prominent in Cave's wordplay." Alexander Tudor of Drowned in Sound called the album "a masterclass in narrative songwriting" and referred to its songs as "favela-punk", adding that "the album's atmospheric centrepiece conveys the mystery of faith (and the weirdness of folk traditions), rather than just rattling out a pretty tune." Henry's Dream was included in a number of album-of-the-year lists, particularly in the United Kingdom. Melody Maker listed it as number 7 on their End of Year Critics List in 1992, NME ranked it at number 5 on its end of year list, and Vox listed it as number 14 in its Albums of 1992.
