Don’t get me wrong, guys — I love Grinderman. In fact, just wait for my 2010 best LPs list to pop up in a little bit and you’ll see just how much I love Grinderman. But at any mention of a new Nick Cave record, I get tingly in a way that just don’t happen with Grinderman. That’s why this bit of news was such a treat.

It looks like once Nick Cave has wrapped up the current Grinderman tour, he’ll return home to his office and grind out the 15th Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds LP. Given his work ethic, that’s not exactly surprising; it is, however, elating.
