Product description

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds deliver a powerful and evocative experience with "Tender Prey," their fifth studio album released on September 19, 1988, under Mute Records, a BMG Company. This 49-minute journey into the depths of alternative rock and new wave is a testament to the band's unique storytelling and musical prowess. Produced by Flood and recorded at the iconic Hansa Tonstudios in Berlin, the album features ten tracks that blend raw energy with poetic lyricism.

Kicking off with the haunting "The Mercy Seat," the album sets a dark and intense tone that carries through to tracks like "Up Jumped the Devil" and "Sunday's Slave." The band's signature sound is on full display, with Cave's distinctive vocals weaving through layers of guitar, piano, and percussion. Standout tracks like "Deanna" and "City of Refuge" showcase the band's ability to craft memorable melodies while exploring themes of redemption, despair, and human connection.

"Tender Prey" is not just another album in Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds' discography; it's a pivotal work that solidified their place in the rock canon. The album's raw production and unfiltered lyrics offer a stark and honest look into the band's artistic vision, making it a timeless addition to any rock enthusiast's collection. Whether you're a long-time fan or a newcomer to their music, "Tender Prey" promises a rich and rewarding listening experience.

This 2015 Reissue Remastered Special Edition LP is pressed on Black vinyl.

  • UK Release: Impressive Soundstage & Clarity

    5 out of 5 stars
    TzawduewhiycoJune 1, 2025United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    Fantastic initial UK release boasting an impressive soundstage and superb instrument clarity all the way through.

  • Mixed-Up Tracks Edition

    5 out of 5 stars
    vobaiyeugakMarch 18, 2025United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    This happens to be an earlier edition of this CD, in which, because of a mistake during printing, "Sunday's Slave" and "Sugar Sugar Sugar" are combined as track 8, "New Morning" is listed as track 9, and track 10 features a reprise of "The Mercy Seat".

  • Top Greek Bad Seeds Pick

    4 out of 5 stars
    Kuan7jOctober 29, 2024United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    This is a great Greek version of this fantastic album. It's my top pick from the Bad Seeds' early days.

  • Loud, Poor Quality Pressing

    2 out of 5 stars
    CogKugKqusmJanuary 29, 2024United StatesπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    I haven't given it a wash yet, but the second side is really loud. I reckon the pressing isn't all that good either.
