Their best selling album:
This was the Cruel Sea's biggest selling album, and although it is one of the best, it lacks the consistency of "This is not the way home" which is widely regarded as the 'best' Cruel Sea album. Honeymoon has some great songs on it all the same.
Cool, Dark and Funky!:
One of the BEST Aussie bands of ALL time! From the Neville Brothers-flavored "Orleans Stomp" to The very Leonard Cohen-esque "Blame It On The Moon", this stuff is really smooth'n'funky! My only complaint is this: Why did Tex Perkins have the spoil the last song by adding the expletive at the end. Swearing on record is NOT cool, Tex. The song is a dark and brooding little gem, until we hear "Blame it on that f**kin' moon!" It's a case of "Yeah, cool....REALLY cool....Whoops, he blew it!" Still worth 5 stars though.
Australian Blues Rock at its best:
For blues and Rock fans from outside Australia the Cruel Sea is probably fairly unknown. These guys are the pinicle of this style of music not just in Aust but very easily cut it with best worldwide. They write quality blues/rock and play it at the virtuoso level. The consistancy of quality songwritting and musicianship between albums is such that I can confidantly say "BUY any of their albums, you will not be dissapointed, and I guarantee you will want to buy more."
