Reviews
Grinderman 2 RMX (2012)
Unessential collection of remixes of Nick Cave's side project Grinderman's second album
Grinderman 2 (2010)
Likeable second album from Nick Cave's jokey other band and blues act, Grinderman, which, however, does not tread very far away from the blueprint of its first album
Heathen Child (2010)
Nihilistic, but forceful vinyl and download only first single from their second album for Nick Cave's project, Grinderman
Grinderman (2007)
Enjoyable debut album from Nick Cave's new band, which proves to be his most aggressive and also most humorous since the days of the Birthday Party and his early solo work
No Pussy Blues (2007)
Abrasive and grungy second single from Nick Cave's new project, Grinderman
Get It On (2007)
Foul mouthed and angry very limited one sided 7 inch, the debut release of Nick Cave's new band Grinderman
