Eclectic Mainline 15th September 2010 – Grinderman interview

This week sees the release of the second Grinderman album, smartly titled Grinderman 2.  To celebrate, in my show tonight I spoke to Jim Sclavunos from the band.  If you heard the show you will have heard Jim and I discussing the evolution of Grinderman since the first album, and also the video to the single Heathen Child, which you can see below.  If you then read the rest of this entry, you will be able to listen to a longer version of the interview, which is available as a podcast.
