“I put on some headphones; I was listening to Death Grips, which is some high-energy, ridiculous music. It gave me the energy I needed to tear through the star.” https://t.co/P0TqhW2xSc— GQ Magazine (@GQMagazine) December 11, 2018

lol nice. year of the snitch was probably my most listened-to album of the year. it didn't bowl me over at first, but its endless parade of off-the-wall ideas--coupled with its uniformly hazy, blunted sonics--kept pulling me back in. i don't think i've seen it on a single year-end list :(
would love to see them go deeper into the psych-prog zone of dilemma

I should have absorbed more DG by now. Really, really, really liked The Powers That B or whatever the two-disc thing was officially called. The juxtaposition of the two not-very-similar discs somehow added something in itself. I even bought a physical copy fercrissakes, which is noteworthy for me nowadays.
But I have no recollection of hearing the stuff since then, nor NLDW for that matter. I've no real excuse...

Definitely a band that felt uniquely important and new. An actual next stage of punk. Seeing the crowd that showed up to their shows kinda ruined some of it for me though. Looked like a 4chan meetup.

Yeah I don’t put that on them, just kinda made me re-evaluate. Gotta really suck to have an unexpected fan base like that though.

lol saw them in london c. money store and the crowd wasn't particularly gross at all? money store is the best imo.
