http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7048341&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Fdeath-from-above-1979%2Fplaylists.rssThis drum and bass duo from Toronto consists of Sebastian Grainger (drums and vocals) and Jessie Keller (synths and bass). Like those indie-grind twosomes GodheadSilo and the Ruins before them, they take stripped-down instrumentation and channel it into pure crash-and-bang noise with the addition of post-punk vocals and a funky dance beat. Formed in 2001 as Death from Above, they got the name from military surplus T-shirt that sported a U.S. paratrooper slogan. In order to avoid a lawsuit from New York music collective and label DFA, they ended up tagging it with Grainger's birth year. It was under this name that they released their long-playing ruckus, <I>You're A Woman, I'm A Machine, </I> in 2004. Because their interests and influences are not only steeped in noise, but also house and hip-hop, they followed it up in 2005 with <I>Romance, Bloody Romance,</I> a CD of dance remixes and B-sides. - Michele K-TelIndie/Alternativeen720Tue, 15 Dec 2009 12:43:20 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7048341&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Fdeath-from-above-1979%2Fplaylists.rss This drum and bass duo from Toronto consists of Sebastian Grainger (drums and vocals) and Jessie Keller (synths and bass).
