This and the rest of the ditch trilogy are incredible. Also an Honourable mention to Pink Moon.

What other troubled albums do you love?

Great album. Helped me a lot when my one of my friends died.

I'm very sorry to hear about your loss and glad you found solace in this wonderful record.

I prefer On the beach but TTN is great.

this was after ricardo killed himself and tried to kill her
i reckon it influenced quite a bit of it

he was suffering with depression and suicidal thoughts

>Cale described his mood while making Music for a New Society as "grotesque."[1] In an interview with Melody Maker shortly after the album's release, Cale was quoted as saying "That album was agony. It was like method acting. Madness. Excruciating. I just let myself go. It became a kind of therapy, a personal exorcism. The songs are mostly about regret and misplaced faith." In What's Welsh for Zen?, Cale further commented that "There were some examples where songs ended up so emaciated they weren't songs any more. What I was most interested in was the terror of the moment... It was a bleak record all right, but it wasn't made to make people jump out of windows."[1]
