The Firstborn Is Dead


There's something about the stark beauty of Nick Cave's second studio album with The Bad Seeds that keeps bringing me back.  It is a paean to the American South of myth and history, and to the horror story that must have been life in that place and time for so many people.

There is no crazy quite like Ol' South crazy.  An Australian by birth, Cave captured that craziness better than most.
