Moustache Monday: Nick Cave: Moustache Philosophy
Posted by Ross Rosenberg
At the beginning of this interview Nick Cave, being interrogated by a seemingly clueless young woman about his new musical endeavor Grinderman, pithily remarks that “a man without a moustache is rather like a woman with one”, or so sayeth the sardonic songster whose wife apparently “made” him grow one, in what seems to be an attempt to make him look more like a crazed, back woods rapist. The rest of the clip is, well, a waste really unless you wish to hear the interviewer comment that she loves their new album because, “it’s hard but it’s also soft at the same time.” Insightful!

Ah I remember this interview. I want to strangle that interviewer, and not in a sexy way.

@Noct…agreed, the interview is ridiculous. But her ineptitude does give our Nick the opportunity for some real gems of quotes. She asks him whether “No Pussy Blues” is literal or has a deeper meaning and he goes “No, it’s just about not getting any pussy.”
Priceless.

Can’t they find a single human being that has an iota of understanding in the field of hard strumming, postgospel, Australian, folk-metal!?
