Grinderman 'When My Baby Comes' Video Review

Slick back perv 'stache Nick Cave really grosses me out.  I can hardly look at this band for the sheer disgust of it.  That being said- was a video a good idea?

Well its a good way to disturb.  The puppet stop animation is so arty and coupled with Caves goth tone well it'll get the hipsters squeaking.  Yes its lovely art and dark and moody but its also been done a thousand times a  million times better.

Animated by Julie Garrod who specializes in creating tactile, macabre and unsettling puppet stop motion animated films this is the perfect pairing with Grindermans hairline.  Upsetting but not enough to care about.

The tune is typical and offers nothing in the way of unique.  This may impress the new kids in town who have never seen this type of 'art' before, but for the rest of us, we deserve better.  Hey has been, you're trying to hard to be edgy.
