1988 studio album by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Tender Prey Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds , released on 19 September 1988 on Mute Records .

Details
[ edit ]
The album opens with frontman Nick Cave 's signature song, "The Mercy Seat ", which has been subsequently played at almost all of the band's live performances since 1988, and was later covered by one of Cave's influences, Johnny Cash , on American III: Solitary Man Deanna " was released in September. On the CD version, the video mix of "The Mercy Seat" is also included as the last track.
Upon its release, Tender Prey received positive reviews and charted in the United Kingdom and Greece . However, the album failed to chart in either the band's native Australia or the United States Billboard DVD set and in October 2010. It was also listed in the book 100 Best Australian Albums The Boatman's Call [13]
Cave later said, "It was a nightmare, that record. It is reflective of a group—particularly myself—who was just writing songs and there was no larger idea behind it. Sometimes some of the group was there, sometimes they weren't. I hear bad production and I hear bad performances as well."[14] [15]
In 2012, the album was added to the National Film and Sound Archive 's Sounds of Australia .[16]
