Grinderman may be calling it quits for the next ten years or so, but before they head off to record a new Bad Seeds record Pitchfork reports that Saint Nick and co will release a new remix album on March 12th.
The release, titled Grinderman 2 RMX, includes covers and mixes off their second album Grinderman 2 which was described by its FL reviewer as “Deeper, darker, funnier and more disturbing than it’s predecessor.”
Ensuring it remains both deep and dark in remix mode is Josh Homme who tackles Mickey Bloody Mouse, Matt Berninger who contributes to Evil and even Grindeman themselves with a demo version of the same song.
Listen to Nick Zinner’s remix of Bellringer Blues:
Grinderman 2 RMX tracklisting:
1 Grinderman / Fripp – Super Heathen Child
2 A Place to Bury Strangers – Worm Tamer
3 Nick Zinner – Bellringer Blues
4 UNKLE – Hyper Worm Tamer
5 Joshua Homme – Mickey Bloody Mouse

The problem with self improvement is knowing when to quit.
