2010 single by Grinderman
"Worm Tamer " is a song by alternative rock group Grinderman , written collectively by the band with lyrics by frontman Nick Cave and music by Warren Ellis , Martyn P. Casey and Jim Sclavunos . The song was released as the band's fifth single and second single from their second studio album, Grinderman 2 [1] BBC music programme, Later... with Jools Holland [2] Heathen Child " and succeeding single "Palaces of Montezuma ."
Background and production [ edit ]
Speaking of the song, several members of Grinderman described it as:
"one of the most extraordinary songs I've (Nick Cave ) ever been involved in in all the years of making music"; "a decidedly freakish number: a catchy paean to the female Other who grows more formidable from verse to verse"; and "very dense. It's one that's going to be interesting to play live."
Written during album's sessions in 2008, the song received initial release in September 2010 on the Grinderman 2 .
Critical reception [ edit ]
The song was described on Pitchfork as "almost comically lascivious"[3] [4]
