ost rarities compilations are chockablock with inferior alternate takes, half-assed covers, one-off soundtrack contributions, dead-end experiments, and tracks that were left off proper albums for good reason. Compiled by Bad Seed Mick Harvey, B-Sides and Rarities contains all of those things from every dark corner of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' 20-plus year career, but it still proves a better retrospective than the equally matter-of-factly titled The Best of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.
