Grinderman: 2 LP

'Grinderman 2' was recorded in 2009 at London's Rak, state of the ark and assault and battery studios. Co-produced by Grinderman and Nick Launay, the album was mixed by Launay at London's British Grove in August 2009 and LA's Seedy Underbelly in April 2010. Opening track 'Mickey Mouse and the Ggoodbye Man' is a glorious statement of intent, a five minute hissy fit of feedback and squall. Other standouts are the super heavy swamp groove of 'When My Baby Comes' and the dark repetitive single 'Heathen Child'. 'gGrinderman 2' is bolder, grander and with a sense of abandon. Perfection.
