In February 2006, the four musicians that are Grinderman booked themselves into London’s Metropolis Studios for a five-day marathon of non-stop demo sessions, resulting in several hours of raw material. In April 2006, Grinderman entered RAK studios, London, for a week with producer Nick Launay. They re-worked the raw material into thirteen songs, returning to Metropolis in October to mix them.

"While everything is quiet and easy
Mr. Grinder can have his way..."

-- Memphis Slim, 1941
