About this album
The Good Son is a crucial turning point for Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, softening the menace of their earlier work without losing its sense of ache and dread. Released in 1990, the album folds blues rock, gospel colours and pared-back new-wave momentum into a set that feels both more melodic and more haunted. Songs such as The Ship Song and The Weeping Song helped broaden Cave’s audience, while the record’s emotional directness marked a major step in the band’s evolution from underground cult favourites to one of alternative rock’s most distinctive forces.
