Haven't listened to his two latest yet (I'm saving those for the right mood), but everything I've heard yet is as far from "quiet, cheap synths and the occasional piano or violin" as it gets, so yeah, I can only recommend diving in somehwere else.

Let Love In, at best.

Don't dislike that one at all, but I think he's done way better. Higgs Boson Blues are top tier Cave, no arguing with that (Finishing Jubilee Street, We Real Cool and the second+third track combo spark less joy though)

If you’ve got 8 hours, jam Abattoir/Lyre. It’s got some of his best songs and a decent variety.

All his albums starting with Tender Prey are essential, with like 2 exceptions.

Haven't heard it yet, but i'm sure that lyrics like "up in the mountain there is a house and in the house their is a broom and the broom was red and red was the wine i was drinking while Harry Potter took the broom and went away, went away, went......... Oh Harry Potter, oh Harry Potter" will hit me like a train (and in the train there is a seat and on the seat.....).

Right now I prefer Skeleton Tree by a small margin but I can see this growing to a 4.5 before the end of the year. This man is in a state of grace.
