Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!

A sleazy, high-energy collision of garage rock and biblical myth. Gritty organ riffs and narrative-heavy vocals recorded in a feverish five-day session.

It is like a pulp novel written by a preacher who has spent too much time in dive bars.

A swaggering, intellectual riot that balances dark humor with genuine rock and roll grit.

Moments Worth Waiting For
the frantic, repetitive organ riff that anchors the title track while Cave re-imagines Lazarus in New York City
the sudden, jarring intrusion of the viola loops on Night of the Lotus Eaters creating a swampy, psychedelic dread
the meta-commentary breakdown in We Call Upon the Author where the music collapses into a rhythmic pulse
