Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Murder Ballads 2LP

In 1996 Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds released Murder Ballads, the band's ninth studio album. As its title suggests, the album consists of new and traditional murder ballads, a genre of songs that relays the details (and often consequences) of crimes of passion.

"Where the Wild Roses Grow," a duet featuring Cave singing with Kylie Minogue, was a hit single and received two ARIA Awards in 1996. Other prominent guest musicians on the album include PJ Harvey and Shane MacGowan. Murder Ballads hit No. 3 in Australia and No. 8 in U.K. upon its initial release.

A series of Nick Cave albums reissued on vinyl in the years 2014 and 2015 now includes this ninth studio album.
