Great album. Makes my top 5 for the year even though it is not as good as their previous effort, the amazing Push the Sky Away.

You can definitely tell Cave is going through massive grief from losing his son. It is a very sad, dark and depressing album (even for Cave) and the lyrics regularly sound like he is about to break out in tears. It is also quite minimalist and almost seems like a modern version of The Boatman's Call.
