Title: pass this one by
Review: I bought this when it came out and thought "It's Nick Cave, how bad can it be?" Well, it CAN be bad and it is. The packaging was beautiful- I love good packaging- it's a silkscreened fabric box-- but the contents...well, maybe I didn't give it enough of a listen but I couldn't get through it. It had choirs and all kinds of schmaltz that I did not see coming from Mr. Cave. I guess finding Christ was not good for him artistically. Maybe if I picked it up again and gave it another shot, but when I hear a choir, I generally have to think they've hit the "We are the World" point creatively. The only choir I can tolerate, generally, are real ones singing actual classical music, or the Polyphonic Spree. Other than that, I don't want to hear it.
