The Story

Grinderman came to be when Nick Cave was writing material in 2004 for Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ album Abattoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus. Teaming up with band members Martyn Casey on bass, Warren Ellis on violin and guitar, and Jim Sclavunos on drums and working up songs as a group, the band went into a studio in London in 2006 and began a marathon session of writing and demoing material. Aiming to recreate the more raw, primal sound like that of Cave's celebrated post-punk project The Birthday Party, Grinderman's lyrical and musical content diverged significantly from Nick Cave's previous work with The Bad Seeds.
Ā 
The following April, they took the cream of these new songs and recorded an album with the help of long-time friend and producer Nick Launay. Released on the 5th March 2007, their 11-song debut album Grinderman was universally acclaimed by critics and features the singles "No Pussy Bluesā€œ and ā€œGet It Onā€. The quartet reconvened in 2009 to record Grinderman 2, which was released in 2010. In December of 2011, Cave announced the band's breakup at a music festival in Australia.
Ā 
The ā€˜ferociously exciting debut album’ (Observer Music Monthly) is available on black eco-vinyl and CD digisleeve format.
