AMG Review of Nocturama
Slash Enburn
All Music GuideEverything on Nocturama sounds like something Cave has done before. "He Wants You" is a smooth love song, "Still in Love" is a gothic love song, and "Wonderful Life" has a nice, slinky beat and a memorable melody. There are also a couple of songs that revisit the old storm-and-bang days of the Birthday Party and early Bad Seeds. Add to that the racing tempos, jagged guitars, and shouted vocals of "Dead Man in My Bed" and the seemingly endless "Babe, I'm on Fire," which is a welcome blast of energy.
