4.0

While a bit dry, it covers Nick's early days with The Boys Next Door and The Birthday Party in great detail, as well as the formation of the Bad Seeds up through the release of "Let Love In," which was released shortly before the book. It only took me so long to finish thanks to the head cold that knocked me out for the past week, which basically turned my concentration to shit. I'd love to read anything as thorough on Cave's career for the past 20+ years; it's crazy to realize that he's been creating music for so long at this point that you'd need at least two books to cover it all up to this point.
