Someone asked me why I liked Death Grips because "it sounds like someone gave a schizophrenic homeless man a microphone and played it over dialup tones" and I told them they answered their own question.

Someone - maybe it was Anthony Fantano, or maybe someone else - compared listening to Death Grips to joining a gang: you get beat up for the first few days, but once you're in, everything falls into place and becomes fine.

Death Grips are on a tour right now in the UK, and I just got back from seeing them in Glasgow. It was just MC Ride and Flatlander - Zach Hill isn't there. Don't know why not, he hasn't quit the band or anything, but it was just as good. Very loud, very intense, and they played a little bit of everything. I wish they would release more music soon, I don't think their three records are enough for me right now!

Zach and Flatty have been alternating on their live shows over the past 6 months. The rumor is that the three members aren't allowed to all be on stage at the same time, or Epic records will sue the hell out of them, and I guess they can't really sub out MC Ride.

they'v never had a history of cancelling shows. they must have really been affected by that note. kind of lovely that the crowd destroyed their equipment.

Is this post for real

yeah? they don't have a history with standing up gigs. and destroying someone else's stuff cause your mad (while a totally death grips thing to do) is lovely.

But now i know that email is a month old i'll give that to you. new album coming out and a band like this thrives on controversy.
