Nick Cave's Grinderman

basically, fuck every other rock band you could see live right now, if grinderman comes to your city you need to go.

some horny old men making crazy noise...nick was inspirational, never seen him before....so funny and rock godlike.

warren ellis was doing really bad things to his guitar...he totally looks like a manical manson version of late period gone-to-seed richard manuel (like last waltz era)...the bassist looks like the dude from sexy beast when he plays nicholson's capo in the departed

fuuuuuuck, i thought about going

yeah, cave is one of those guys who just owns the stage. saw him w/ the bad seeds a couple years back and he killed. would definitely go see grinderman if they were playing near me.

Grinderman 2 might be my favorite album of the year. Loud, obnoxious, funny, scary, catchy, noisy.

It's the sound of frustrated middle-aged men giving it their all one last time. That's fresher than the umpteenth love song from where I stand...

yeah, it might be my favorite of the year, too (along with gil scott heron; good year for middle-aged angst, i guess).

there's such a ferocious, menacing sexual vibe over the whole album. it's like steely dan got turned down by every girl they hit on in the gaucho era, and turned aggressive/borderline violent.

gotta see if someone nominated worm tamer for track of the year. i forgot to, but it's in my top five for 2010.

can anyone tell me if the RMX EP is worth getting?

Enjoying this today:
