New Grinderman single out next month
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 1 July 2010
Nick Cave’s Grinderman will release the first single off second album ‘Grinderman 2’ on 30 Aug, with the new long player following on 13 Sep.
Called ‘Heathen Child’, the band’s website says the first single release “cuts a deep seductively heavy groove interjected with dazzling squalls of saw-tooth distortion. It abounds in lyrical imagery at turns lascivious, paranoid, philosophic, absurd and flat out abusive”.
Grinderman have also said that, while all four members are also in Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, we are not to consider this band a mere side project.
Their webby statement continues: “Grinderman is no hobby, no dalliance, and clearly no one-off: it is a crucible, an experimental workshop, a disciplined orgy of ideas and action. Grinderman is the one-of-a-kind band Nick, Warren, Martyn and Jim have waited all their life to be, and only now at this moment in time can have become”.
