Death From Above 1979 with Spiritual Cramp
Death From Above 1979 is a duo from Toronto, Ontario, known for performing punkified disco rock.
Death From Above 1979 certainly kept moving on their third full-length album, Outrage! Is Now (Last Gang Records/Warner Bros. Records). While gleefully maintaining the car-wreck intensity of their punkified disco rock, the hooks got hookier, the weirdness got weirder, and the wildness got, well, wilder. The mustached merchants of death dance discord--Sebastien Grainger (vocals, drums) and Jesse F. Keeler (bass, keys, synths)--made a collective decision to embrace their own penchant for perpetual motion and cooked up the perfect soundtrack to Armageddon's dancefloor.
"By your third album, I feel like you should be trying different things, whether subconsciously or consciously," exclaims Jesse. "You've got to stretch out the pizza dough of your idea and see how big you can make it creatively. After 17 years, things change. We both wanted to see how far we could take it as Death From Above. Once we started working on music, it seemed like this was going to be a record where the very idea of what our band is evolved."
