Review
What was startling was how well Cave and his bandmates - Barry Adamson, Mick Harvey, and Blixa Bargeld - were able to absorb and honor the influences of artists like Skip James and Charley Patton while creating a sound that was unmistakably their own. The moody obsessions of rural blues - trains, floods, imprisonment, sin, fear, and death - seemed made to order for Cave, and he was able to tap into the doomy iconography of this music with potent emotional force... - All Music 4/5
