I like to call 'em Punk-Rap or something. I'm working on it.

stop spamming this poo poo in my loving thread please

It's a good suggestion though. That was a very rude post.

I love hip hop, but I admittedly am not as knowledgeable in it as I should be.

Death Grips is honestly the only interracial "rap" (debatable, I know) group I can really think of, and that's super interesting to me.

What the poo poo does their skin color have anything to do with anything?

Well, Death Grips did a remix for her last year or in 2011 so this isn't too unexpected.

I'm more excited for the crowd reactions. Those should be great.

I'm glad there is someone in music doing this stuff. It's interesting. I just don't want it to, or think it'll spread to other acts.

It kind of is. Not like the genre, but that is what being a punk is.

Yeah but so what? Just because something is pretentious doesn't mean its any less of a statement or "art". I'm not trying to really support this too much, I'm just playing devil's advocate.

I don't think it makes it any less of a statement either. They pulled off what I guess you could call a daring stunt of sorts, but just because what they did was kind of interesting, I don't think it validates it. At the end of the day, they didn't show up for a gig, and were planning to do the same thing for other dates on the tour by the sound of it. Whether they intended it as a statement, or dressed it up as a statement, at it's core it's still a lovely thing to do.

Yeah, its 100% lovely for sure.

Yeah like people saying "It's the best thing they've ever done" what, you've had a more than a year to evaluate their older stuff and you already say its better than those? Jumpin' thee gun a bit.

If you can't find it easily, it's likely that they aren't going on a tour or have one planned at the moment.

Both Hella and Death Grips have been extremely influential on contemporary music so Zach Hill certainly is doing something right. Mad respect.

I wouldn't say this post is an extremely accurate one.

Professionalism is the reason music nowadays is so often passionless and boring. "Professional Musician" is an oxymoron, as far as I'm concerned.

You can literally hear the punctuality. It's there in the mix, just behind the snare. I don't like it.

Ummmm Ya soooo don't book tours then? It's part of their persona and I think it's funny but don't throw in what's 'fair' here.

I don't think anyone cares to have this discussion. If you're still burned about them not showing up to your show (or you weren't even going to one of those and you're just upset for other people's sake) then it may be high-time to stop caring.

haha nope, I didn't see that one. I went downstairs halfway through because the sound from the balcony was all treble.

Have they ever said thank you to any crowd before?

Yeah, I left before it but they apparently said thank you and looped it at the Seattle show.
