Tender Prey is the fifth studio album by Australian post-punk band Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, released on 19 September 1988 on Mute Records. Produced by Flood, the album was recorded during several session over the course four months in West Berlin—where the band were based at the time of its release— and London and dedicated to Fernando Ramos da Silva. The album opens with front man Nick Cave's signature song, "The Mercy Seat," which has been subsequently played at almost all of the band's live performances since 1988, and was later covered by one of Cave's influences, Johnny Cash, on American III: Solitary Man (2000). "The Mercy Seat" was released as a single in May 1988 prior to the album's release and "Deanna" was released in September. On the CD version, the video mix of "The Mercy Seat" is also included as the last track. Upon its release, Tender Prey received positive reviews and charted in the United Kingdom and Greece. However, the album failed to chart in either the band's native Australia or the United States Billboard charts. The album was remastered and reissued on 29 March 2010 as a collector's edition CD/DVD set and in October 2010, was listed in the book, 100 Best Australian Albums, alongside The Boatman's Call (1997), in the Top 30.
In 2012 it was added to the Australian National Registry of Recorded Sound.
