Though I have From Her to Eternity, which I don't really like it, a little too eccentric for my tastes, but the few songs I've heard lately, I really like, especially "Into My Arms". So with the style of that song in mind, with which album should I re-start my Cave collection?

I personally think Lyre of Orpheus/Abbatoir Blues is pretty excellent and probably my favorite by him.

The Boatman's Call and Murder Ballads is pretty good too.

Exactly what I would have said.

Another vote for Murder Ballads...and a minority plug for Let Love In.

this and the one released just before it are the only two Nick Cave albums that I don't like.

Murder Ballads is a good place to start.
