Death From Above 1979

xcanuck:
I apologize in advance if this topic was started previously....
 
 But has anyone checked out Death From Above's "You're a Woman, I'm a Machine"? It was released back in Oct/Nov and it fucking kicks serious ass. I'm not much of a fan of garage rock (OK, OK...whatever the hell THAT means) but these guys seem to have a better songwriting sense than other bands of that ilk. These guys are just bass and drums - a little bit metal, a little bit pop....distortion laden and angrier sounding than Scott Lucas at his best. Maybe this is what Foo Fighters would sound like if they were stripped down and updated their sound.
 
 Anyhow - the reason I bring it up is that they're touring but the closest they'll come to DC is a show on 1/28 in Philly. Looks like it's time for a roadtrip!
 
 And...I would be remiss if I neglected to mention...they're my homies from Toronto.  :)

I think they played Velvet Lounge not too long ago.
 
    I saw em last year in London (ONT) with Billy Talent.  they put on a great live show, albeit loud as all get out.
 
    you know those guys canuck?  they are quite a rowdy looking pair.

Holy crap - you're right!! I'm a few months behind the times. They were there in Sept of last year.
 
 haha - no, I don't KNOW the guys. Just that they're from my (adopted) hometown of Toronto. But they will be worth the drive up to Philly. It's been awhile since someone made my ears bleed like that.

Did you attend DeGrassi Junior High? Were you ever an extra on 21 Jump Street?
