Maybe they'll tour the south in the winter...

Wait, did we miss a new video, it seems?

Ha, read that too quickly from a friend, it's Death *Songs* -- but I so wouldn't have been surprised if they did a new one.

Agree Death Songs are pretty terrible if that video is any indication.

Death Grips 4eva

#yolo contendere (Whiney G. Weingarten), Saturday, 7 April 2012 16:42 (twelve years ago) link

New album is sicccc of course, but total lack of samples means it's a little less destructive/corrosive as the first. Still some bangers on thurr

#yolo contendere (Whiney G. Weingarten), Saturday, 7 April 2012 16:43 (twelve years ago) link

you going to this will.i.amsburg show whiney?

wrapped sausage stylus (forksclovetofu), Saturday, 7 April 2012 16:44 (twelve years ago) link

i think j0rdan might've been saying Death Songs are terrible, not Death Grips?

Kills me I can't go to the non-Coachella show here! Argh, next time.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 10 April 2012 15:57 (twelve years ago) link

The album's loads of fun, but I confess that I gravitate much more towards the surprisingly poppy tunes ("Get Got," "I've Seen Footage," "Hacker")

Simon H., Wednesday, 18 April 2012 02:28 (twelve years ago) link

i was just trolling -- i don't really like this band but it's really not my thing, that said "i seen footage" but anything that rips "push it" would be

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 18 April 2012 02:33 (twelve years ago) link

can't remember when i last found a record as hard to make through as exmilitary

liberté, égalité, beyoncé (lex pretend), Wednesday, 18 April 2012 10:02 (twelve years ago) link

I find it very mood-dependent. Before reviewing the new one I listened to Exmilitary again while I was out in town in a foul mood and it felt like someone jamming a sharpened pencil into my ear. Then got stuck into the new one over the next couple of days and got into it straight away. Can't remember the last time my own reactions to a record have been so polarised from one day to the next.

Another video.

seriously someone help me out with that main sample on The Fever (Aye Aye) - it's driving my nuts

No samples on the record according to Zach.

azealia canks (Whiney G. Weingarten), Thursday, 19 April 2012 18:49 (twelve years ago) link

I've been listening to Exmilitary nonstop as of late. It was like my #50 record of the year or something but I'm realizing i still underrated it

azealia canks (Whiney G. Weingarten), Thursday, 19 April 2012 18:51 (twelve years ago) link

yuppie bullshit chocolate blogbait (contenderizer), Thursday, 19 April 2012 19:32 (twelve years ago) link

Holy FUCK this record. I love Exmilitary even though it can be wearying at times, wondered if I might not need another Death Grips, but holy FUCK this record. Maybe I'm just caffeine tweaking this AM, I dunno

Acute puppy syndrome (admrl), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 15:40 (eleven years ago) link

This is the new record I am holy fucking about

Acute puppy syndrome (admrl), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 15:40 (eleven years ago) link

Death Grips make me laugh, but in a good way. I am laughing with them, as in at the start of each track OMG this is REALLY how this song is going to go down?? "kudos" Death Grips!!!!

Acute puppy syndrome (admrl), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 15:42 (eleven years ago) link

You're using THAT sample? really? for the whole song? are you sure? And that's the lyric??? That's REALLY the lyric? How do I feel about that?....Wow, that actually works. Clearly you know how this music thing works far better than I do.

Acute puppy syndrome (admrl), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 15:44 (eleven years ago) link

agreed. this isn't grabbing me the way the last one was where it was all DEATH Y'ALL and i could ride a bit more with that, but it's very good.
Need to listen like 8 zillion more times over the next month before i talk too much about it i think

boy, was that Dan Fielding hungry for some cake! (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 15:44 (eleven years ago) link

I think I like this more than Exmilitary, tbh. Though I do miss how "Beware" sets up that record. There's nothing that stalks me in quite the same way here. I love how that song is like, come over here, no no I'm not going to brutalize you, I just want to talk about some curious and deep ideas I've been having, oh wait actually I lied, BOOM

Acute puppy syndrome (admrl), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 15:47 (eleven years ago) link

Is there really a lyric in "Hacker" that goes You're an intern/I'M WIKILEAKS? haha

Acute puppy syndrome (admrl), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 15:50 (eleven years ago) link

Ride is developing a Mark E Smith level talent for non sequiturs that end up sequituring

bendy, Wednesday, 25 April 2012 16:14 (eleven years ago) link

so this is out huh?

and yeah the setup of beware is so so good

catbus otm (gbx), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 16:38 (eleven years ago) link

Reminds me of MU

Evan, Wednesday, 25 April 2012 17:28 (eleven years ago) link

Or Mu, whichever it is. That Afro Finger & Gel album.

Evan, Wednesday, 25 April 2012 17:32 (eleven years ago) link

maybe it's because I've been in a Depeche Mode rabbit hole for the past week but I tried to listen to Exmilitary and got really sick of it three songs in

I'll try again later when I'm not all synthpopped to death

I'M THAT POSTA, AAAAAAAAAH (DJP), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 18:06 (eleven years ago) link

Is there really a lyric in "Hacker" that goes You're an intern/I'M WIKILEAKS? haha

no samples and all, but the "guitar" noise in i've seen footage sounds so much like kill me tomorrow

whole thing streaming on soundcloud iirc

on spotify today

"in this super-sexy postracial age" (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 20:24 (eleven years ago) link

i preferred this album to the mixtape, which i could barely get through - bits of it reminded me of gang gang dance in a sideways spirit - but oh god his voice is just so one-note and unlistenable

liberté, égalité, beyoncé (lex pretend), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 20:37 (eleven years ago) link

i think you mean awesome and really awesome
