Yeah I think this is what 4.8's were made for. Of course I'm not a staff member so I can't do that. This record is so haunting and disturbing but it's really addicting as well.

Well I spun to the left, I spun to the right, and I spun to the left again. "Fear me! Fear me! Fear me!" But no one did, cause they were deeeeaaaaayayayaaad

The Curse of Millhaven is just hilarious.

'They ask me if I feel remorse and I answer, "Why of course! There is so much more I could have done if they'd let me!"' I think this album's great with the mixture of the darkly humourous and the really, really morose (Kindness of Strangers, Song of Joy).

I need to listen to Let Love In more. This is the first Nick Cave record that I received so I listen to this one very often.

I love the ambiguity in Song of Joy as to whether the narrator is the murderer. It's told really cleverly, and the more you peel it back the more ambiguous it becomes.

Just out for a quiet pint and a pack of dry roasted and then stagger strides in.

She saw the barkeep, said, "O God, he can't be dead!"



Stag said, WELL JUST COUNT THE HOLES IN THE MUTHAFUCKER'S HEAD

Slam the bag of nuts down on the table. "Well really. There is no need. There's children playing out in the beer garden" pick up a pool que, straight over staggers head before turning to the whore. "Apologies for that prick love, drink?" 2hrs later a free shag in the pub car park.



That was basically me early 2000s

AND I TURNED MY GUN ON THE BIRD-LIKE MR BROOKES

I THOUGHT OF SAINT FRANCIS AND HIS SPARROWS

I swear 90% of O'Malley's Bar is instantly quotable.
