What’s on in Melbourne Victoria – “Death Grips”

California’s darkest avant-garde Hip Hop collective DEATH GRIPS (USA) is invading Australia this January.

Hailing from California’s capital city, Sacramento, Death Grips is a dark and intense experimental trio that brings to hip hop what Black Flag brought to hardcore, and that being unadulterated attitude and raw power.

Exploding into mass international consciousness on 8 March 2011 with their video ‘Full Moon’, it wasn’t until 25 April when fans were fully exposed to the sheer hostility and darkness of Death Grips, a date marking the release of their free downloadable mixtape album entitled Ex-Military.

Death Grips are one of the hardest, darkest, and most uncompromising hip hop bands around; their live shows evoke nothing short of pure energy and intense emotion, which have earned them some well-deserved international critical acclaim. In January Death Grips will be touring Australia nationally for the first time, with their first show being at Hobart’s prestigious arts festival Mona Foma. You’ve been warned.
