Are the Death Grips an inside joke? I listened to them for the first time after actively ignoring them, and its sort of a nursery rhyme tune with silly lyrics over the top. What a shit decade for music either way.
I FUCK THE MUSIC I MAKE IT CUMI FUCK THE MUSIC WITH MY SERPENET COCK
>>130609861Listen to it louder
>>130609861First time I heard Beware I was hooked instanty. It's aggressive and catchy, the lyrics are intriguing from just how esoteric they are. I don't listen to them outside of The Powers That B anymore though, the rest of their discography does feel like shallow earslop after a while.
>>130610437>BewareI literally started laughing when I first heard that song.Something about "I close my eyes and seize it (seize it)" with that little hi-hat beat just gets me.Oh yeah, its super abrasive and gritty though.
>>130610518A lot of their lyrics can be unintentionally funny. It's probably a big reason for how notoriously obnoxious their fans were.
Its that joke about liking death metal (Evanescence), but serious.
>>130610518You can't even identify what it is you find funny but you still feel a need to mock others for not seeing it. People like you need to stop sometime and consider whether you aren't just retarded. Like maybe your intelligent taste is actually just permanent confusion. It would explain this type of post perfectly.
>I am the beast I worship
>>130609861>>130609861Zach hill’s best work was with hella during the aughts or something like that
>>130610674>unintentionallyNah Ride knows what he’s doing. They’re very serious about their art but that doesn’t mean their art is incapable of being funny
AND I KNOW SOON COMES MY TIME FOR IN MY VOID A PALE HORSE BURNSBUT I FEAR NOT THE TIME I'VE TAKEN PAST THE POINT OF NO RETURN
I CLENCH MY ASS AND SQUEEZE ITI SEE COCK AND INSERT ITI LIKE CUM SO I SLURP ITI AM THE QUEEN I WORSHIP
>>130609861>the death gripsbait used to be believable
>>130609861It was considered something pretty different and weird for the time, but probably more in that Tumblr/Reddit kind of way. Go back in the archives and you'll see anons calling it kids music or creating parody versions.
am i the only one who doesn't like anything they put out post-NLDW? just never really clicked with me, felt a little too experimental for my taste.
More like GAY Grips
>gets oneshotted by zoomGODS and quit
>>130609861Is that the band that did the This is America song a few years back?
>>130618079its the band that got ran offstage by these dweebs throwing sneakers at them and subsequently broke up
>>130618095Kek yeah that was it. I think there was also some pic of the front row and it was all just children, and you could see MC looking pissed off at realizing he's a kids performer.
>>130618095going to a death grips concert dressed like this is hilarious and based and im tired of pretending its not
>>130618095I hate how much people meme this band, fuck Fantano for introducing these gay Redditors to Death Grips.
>>130618222It's what they deserved for being the le quirky and loud band.
>>130618095The only based thing zoomies have ever done
>>130618222
>MC Ride>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSbVAde9xfo
>>130618241>>130618222True, i don’t hate it
>>130618241>Death Grips walked off set during a live performance due to fans throwing objects at them and urinating in the mosh pit Based.
>>130618292https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fq9F_2DapNkthere's also this time where MC walked off because someone threw a glowstick kek
>>130618292that show sounds legendary honestly
>>130618292>>130618312papa het would never
>>130618095>>130618292>>130618312Y'know what? Zoomers are alright.
>>130609861lmao listen to on gp of jenny death and look up the meaning for ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cinJDxLUsNYacc i feel like its kinda an adquired taste i hated them at the start but at some point it clicked for me and now i love em
OP doesn't stay noided
>>130619545They should get a new singer, MC Blackman just sound like somebody shouting on the bus.
At least we have machine girl still
lol i’m seeing some zoomer revisionism in here regarding the subject of whether anti-DG’s were dorks or not… https://youtu.be/yaOlx9BTjdk“I WENT TO COLLEGE BRIEFLY FOR MUSIC SO I CAN ATTEST TO THE FACT MEME GRIPS ARE NOT ACTUAL MUSIC” was actually a fairly common view back then.
>>130620071>“I WENT TO COLLEGE BRIEFLY FOR MUSIC SO I CAN ATTEST TO THE FACT MEME GRIPS ARE NOT ACTUAL MUSIC” was actually a fairly common view back then.people who go to school for music often have the most shallow taste. I lived in Boston near Berkley for a while so I'd party with Berkley kids sometimes and they were always mad snobby white kids who only listened to Jazz or anything that prioritized tech over taste. I called it "Berkley circle jerk" music, stuff like Snarky Puppy, Vulfpeck, Dream Theater etc. Buncha dorks. A few of them were leaning into the indie thing happening around that time (~2010) but it felt like when old people misuse a meme format or something, super detached.
>>130619922I booked shows at a DIY venue I lived at for like a decade and Machine Girl was one of my favorite shows I ever booked. They were insane live and for some reason it was kind of a divisive thing, like kids were showing up from out of state hours early to see MG but a lot of the locals that came did not fuck with it. I like their music enough but go see em live if you can, it changed my perspective on them a lot
>>130619922dude… it’s not 2018 anymore. no one cares about Machine Girl lol.that’s what putting out the same album 5 times straight does to a band i guess idk.
>>130609861>jokeAfte the glowstick incident yes
>>130620378Gets me every time I see the clip.>lone glowstick flies onto the stage, nowhere near MC>MC gets all pissed and walks off>guitarist just drops his guitar to the ground and walks off too
>>130620388https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fq9F_2DapNkthey also weren't even playing, they just use backing tracks
>>130618095>>130618222I hate that Fantano become a lefitist cuck, but I also love that doing so also lead directly to the band accumulating the equivalent to Rick & Morty fans.
>>130620378>>130620388>>130620392Was it staged?
>>130618095They didn't break up and they're working on a new album>>130618312That was the incident he was refering to>>130620392This is what they always did. They play over backing tracks
