Never mind the bats, release the DVD! A fair-value set of 20 promos from the durable out-of-tune gothsters, many directed by longtime cohort John Hillcoat. Anton Corbijn helms “Straight To You”, and renaissance man Mick Harvey bosses the excellent “Deanna” and “Wanted Man”.There’s an undeniable sense that Cave’s talents withered long ago, and the duets with Kylie, PJ Harvey and Shane MacGowan are distraction tactics, but this is a comprehensive, cool-enough collection.
