The second great album of 2008 (since I haven’t got around to the Mix Market CD yet) is courtesy of Mr Nick Cave and his Bad Seeds, some of whom are still clearly hung over from the Grinderman sessions. This is a good thing. Even if you prefer him in Murder Ballads mode, you can’t deny Cave is one of the greatest orators in rock today. And how many people can make a receding hairline and a 70s mustache look goddamn suave?

Want proof? Not only do you have a killer single in the title track:


You also have a series of promotional videos from Mute where Nick and the band hold charlatan seances.

Like so.


Damn, Jim. What is not to love?

Blindfold me sir,

This is dF
