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.
Easily one of my favorite albums of the last decade. It's brilliant.
