Not for me. I guess they were fine in certain settings, but they're not albums I'd throw on whenever.

Which one did you prefer?

And given your feeling on these two albums, what's your favorite Cave album?

Skeleton Key. It felt darker.

Boatman's Call which I suspect is now buttock.

You mean Skeleton Tree?

It's been a minute since I've listened to Boatman's Call, but I can't say I was ever enamored with that one. Too slow/subdued. Not enough variety. I think I preferred the Good Son to that album if we're talking about Cave's more laid-back/acoustic efforts.

I mean it's hard to pick an album because I like his changes. I love Tupelo, Dig Yourself (this was actually a killer album), West Country Girl, Stagger Lee

Sorry, yes, Skeleton Tree

I don't think I ever listened to a full Nick Cave album. One of those guys that's very familiar and I like some of his songs, but it never interested me enough to seek out more of his music. Should put it on my to-do list.

I saw One More Time With Feeling and liked it. He's great in a cinematic setting.

any real fan of The Birthday Party agrees with me
To clarify, you mean Nick Cave without the Bad Seeds. Right? Just Nick Cave solo? Still not seeing how it's "Folk" but I want to take baby steps.

Rowland IS The Birthday Party
I like TBD but do they have an album comparable to From Her To Eternity?

From Her To Eternity sounds more like TBP than basically the rest of the Bad Seeds discography.

Prayers on Fire is the best Birthday Party album imo. Check it out if you haven't.
