Grinderman album & tour

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Saw them at the Garage last night, seen the Bad Seeds loads of times but first time for Grinderman.
It was pretty much the Nick & Warren show - they're totally off in their own little world. Played most (maybe all, can't really remember) of the new album and half of the first.

Top nite out 8)

Definitely an improvement.

Indeed. The Bad Seeds created some pretty sensuous music, so his "rock n roll rock sex offender" look left me feeling a little violated.

Rumour has it that his wife shave it off for him. :lol:

Personally, I thought the "porn star" look fitted quite well with the whole Grinderman groove.

Yeah. The whole "hirsute sleazy degenerate rocker" thing suits the music. Especially since he's got a lot less of it on top of his head than he used to.
