Despite some recent misguided outbursts, Henry Rollins remains an interesting and intelligent entertainer. So when he sits down for an interview with another fascinating musician like Nick Cave, you expect to get a revealing and insightful Q&A. Rollins' interview for LA Weekly with Cave focuses on Bad Seeds side project Grinderman, but touches on everything from Cave's work with Robert Fripp to similarities between Cave and John Coltrane.
Some choice quotes include an anecdote about producer Nick Launay complaining that Cave and the Bad Seeds were "playing like a bunch of old men" during the recording of Nocturama, and that apparently Robert Fripp will refer to himself "constantly in the third person" when in the studio.
