the best part about this is the album cover and the worst part about it is the rhymey-wimey lyrics. please stop making my brain go "oh oh hoh let me guess no shortage of fools" shortly before that line is delivered because the AABB rhyme scheme is so tortured. I'm not sure why this is on here when the list has other, more formative/influential Nick Cave except that recency bias was probably a huge factor. I get that this is a big departure from past sound but there's a lot of other synth-sweeping music that came before and some of it is already on this list
