Skeleton Tree
Cave's devastating album created during his son's death. The music confronts grief's rawness without resolution or comfort. Ellis' stark soundscapes support Cave's shattered lyrics exploring loss beyond comprehension. The album documents suffering's reality and meaning's collapse. Art as witness to unbearable pain.
