Great album. Ever notice how a bunch of the watery, weird sea creature sounds and feel of many of these songs sound a lot like parts of "Submission" by the Pistols?

I had this album in high school. I just wanted them to abduct me. It's a pretty great punk record though.

Same here about his catalogue but.... I highly recommend that you all subscribe to his Red Hand Files which is basically an email newsletter where Cave answers random questions about life from fans all over the world. He does it via emails which come about once each week. His answers are always intimate, moving and thought provoking. My description probably doesn't do it justice (New Yorker does a better job: https://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultu ... ewsletters )
Anyway, check it out you won't regret it.
Here's the link to subscribe: https://www.theredhandfiles.com/#subscribe
Edit: And btw it's just one email per week, each one being just a few paragraphs. Not overwhelming at all.

It’s a deep, deep dive and well worth taking. I think I have at least 90% of what he’s released under his name but still feel like a rank neophyte. There’s gold in them there hills but it’s a long time on the mining. I may never get a full vice grip on his massive body of work but at least I’m enjoyin’ the ride

Can you put together a playlist? (Please and thank you).

I checked out the New Yorker article and this reminded me of World of Hurt.

“It seems to me, that if we love, we grieve. That’s the deal,” he wrote to Cynthia.

"To love is to feel pain" there ain't no way around it

Since Floyd is obviously too lazy to help us out, here's a compilation I found on Cave's Spotify page. 45 songs, almost four hours, surely a rabbit hole.

Nope, not enough time in the day, alas. I have noted it
