Music reviews of Tender Prey (CD/DVD)
Music Review: PREY BABY PREY
Rating: 5 Stars
This is quintessential Bad Seeds. If you're looking for an introduction, I'd say this is the place to start. If you must have only 1 in the Bad Seeds' welcome 7 album collector's edition re-issue campaign, this is it! It's not only a lot closer to the vinyl I remember, this long overdue re-master let's you hear every drop of blood falling from the end of a pin amdist the strum und drang.
As for the album itself, here's proof darkness & chaos can yield a New Day.
Without a doubt, "The Mercy Seat" is a tremendous feat & deservedly has become Cave's signature song. Despite the honor of being covered by Johnny Cash, The Bad Seeds' original remains definitive.
Close on the heels follows one of my personal favorites, the underrated, "Up Jumped the Devil", featuring priceless, one of a kind, tongue-n- cheek lines like: "my blood was blacker than the chambers of a dead nun's hearrrrrrt".
In addition, Tender Prey boasts another classic in the reckless Romantic abandon of "Deanna".
Elsewhere, you have the spooky voyeuristic longing for "Alice", tales of John the Baptist & killers lurking by the side of the road to the City of Refuge.
None of which accounts for the one-too-many, late night Sinatra reverie of "Slowly Goes the Night", a tune Cave admits having "this mad scheme that involved singing the song in tune...Never did get there" (despite the week it took to lay down the vocals).
All of which may give you some indication what they were up against coming up with this 1988 classic. Musically, an absolute mixed bag of misfits that band together in Wild Bunch camaraderie---leaving a beautiful corpse behind every time.
In terms of my personal tastes, this is one of the best albums of the mid to late 80's, along with Tom Waits' Rain Dogs & The Pogues' Fall from Grace with God. After this, Cave & co. would make a dramatic about face with the melodic, melancholy of The Good Son. In terms of the Bad Seeds, Tender Prey marks the end of an era.

Description of Tender Prey (CD/DVD)
This deluxe double-disc collectors edition contains the remastered stereo album, the new surround mix, a specially commissioned short film made by acclaimed UK artists Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard plus the b-sides from the singles and exclusive sleeve notes.The period leading up to and culminating in the making of Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds' fifth studio album, Tender Prey, was a profusely fertile time for all the individual band members, overloaded with so much peripheral creative activity and personal turmoil that the entire long process of recording and mixing the album was encompassed by tumult.
Here then, for your consummate listening pleasure, Mute presents Tender Prey, with all its risks, beautiful failures and realised aspirations faithfully and entirely re-mastered in 5.1 surround sound.
