Hi,
Spent part of the morning listening to this album. I have a few albums by Nick Cave knocking about the house. They come out for alisten every now and again.
Murder Ballads is an enjoyable listen. It deals with a dark side of human natural. The songs are well crafted together making the whole album engaging and entertaining. When I pressed play, I wanted to listen to the album the whole way through. I was drawn into the lyrics of the songs.
I liked his take on Stagger Lee and his use of the guest singers. I liked how the album finished with Death is not the end. A well thought out track.
Overall this is a winner.

There are only two types of music. Music I own and music I don't.
