I was listening to some of the bad seeds

stuff yesterday, then I got into a frenzy and listened to 'red red hand' and followed with two Tom Waites albums. Cave is terribly excellent, did you ever read his book ' and the ass saw the angel'?

Yes

I was pretty young at the time so I'd probably appreciate it more now.
Kind of the same redneck obsession displayed by the D*A*A*S..

I can't say i have read it.

And this is pretty much me discovering Nick Cave right now, i'd heard of him before, but not actually heard his stuff, i'm about to investigate further.

Go get yourself

some Birthday Party records.
("Prayers on Fire" is a good introduction)
Records, mind, not those funny shiny disc things those crazy kids have these days.

Oh yes.

And Tom Waits is one of my all time heroes. I think I own pretty much everything he's legitimately recorded.

Have you heard the track Cave did on the "Until the End of the World" soundtrack? Hilarious and amazing. I'll rip it for you if you don't know it...

EDIT - actually, that film was a bit crap, but the soundtrack has some fantastic tracks on it.
