Let Love In (1994)
(MUTE CD Stumm 123, 2005)

You said: “All the things that make Cave great in one package.” Mark Axon, Manchester

This eighth Bad Seeds studio album was recorded against an international backdrop. After a spell living in Brazil, Cave was back in London living in Kensington. The album was recorded in London and Melbourne and, in the lyrics of Jangling Jack, shows some distaste for contemporary America. Overseen with a new fastidiousness from Cave, the LP is at once bloody, reflective and beautiful - perhaps, cumulatively, suggesting a hopeless malfeasant being catapulted toward goodness by some astonishing act of fate. It centres on the two-part Do You Love Me - a stop-you-in-your-tracks study in infatuation and abuse.
