Interview by Kris PetersKnown for their raw and stripped-back sound, Death From Above 1979 have been described as everything from noise punk to dance punk, embodying a DIY ethos that Rolling Stone described as “noisy hardcore, gritty synths, and earnest screams.” The duo's relentless beats, searing guitars, and ferocious energy practically summon you to the dance floor.Death From Above 1979 return to Australia for a run of shows this April, marking the first time the band have visited this country in almost a decade and a half, first coming in 2005 and then again in 2011 for Parklife. Don't miss your chance to experience the explosive energy and sheer power of Death From Above 1979 live on their 20th Anniversary tour for their debut album You're a Woman, I'm a Machine. It promises to be an unforgettable salute to a record that still pulses with the same intensity as it did when it first detonated in 2004.You're a Woman, I'm a Machine contained edge-of-your-seat classics including Romantic Rights, Blood On Our Hands, Black History Month and Little Girls, but let's face it, every track is killer. A perfect, 10 out of 10 review from back in the day via Drowned In Sound, stated "It's not just music you're hearing - sweat, blood, spunk and beer are all audible, splattering these 11 tracks like a Pollock…. It's so simple, just two dudes making a right ol' racket, done with such spirit and delivered with such a purity - magnificently filthy.” HEAVY spoke with drummer/vocals Sebastien Grainger ahead of the tour to get the rundown, at one point asking what had changed with the band since they were here last 14 years ago."We had just started playing again after being broken up for five years or so," he recalled. "So that was like a reunion tour for us. And we didn't have a new record, we only had that first record - and we didn't make a new record until 2014. So in that time, in those 14 years, that's basically the… It's this whole second phase of the band, you know, the whole second period of the band was between 2011 and now. So, yeah, I mean, we made three LPs and toured around the world and, you know, had families and more children and all kinds of stuff."In the full interview, Sebastien discussed the band's upcoming tour in Australia, emphasizing the importance of celebrating the 20th anniversary of their debut album You're a Woman, I'm a Machine. He reflected on the band's evolution, including the release of three additional LPs, and the challenges of adapting their music for live performances, highlighting the unique energy generated through audience interaction rather than a traditional frontman approach. The conversation included insights into the album title's origin, inspired by a misheard phrase from his girlfriend.We also ran through the creative aspect of writing and recording You're A Woman, I'm a Machine free from expectation or pressures and how it set Death From Above 1979 on the path to which they find themselves today and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Toronto and Montreal based trio, American Lips, have just announced the release of their latest 3-song maxi-single Waste of Crime on Ancient Fashion Records. American Lips features Death From Above 1979 drummer Sebastien Grainger and prolific producer Adrian Popovich, also known for his time in legendary Canadian rock act Tricky Woo. In explaining their newest offering the bands' latest one-sheet asks you to ponder, “Ever wondered what it would sound like if The Art Of Noise produced a Plastic Bertrand record?” To clear up that question Popovich explains, “I spent a good chunk of 1988 listening to the Colors OST and the“Kiss”cassingle by The Art Of Noise and Tom Jones. This older kid Rob on my street who was into punk rock said “the Colors soundtrack is pretty cool but that Art Of Noise song is garbage!” As a nine-year-old, I'd yet to be called out on my questionable musical tastes. Rob made me a mixtape with songs by The Ramones, Misfits, Motorhead, The Buzzcocks and a bunch of other essentials. I'd never heard any punk music before and the impact it had on me was huge. Ffwd to 2022, when Sebastien unilaterally decided to add Fairlight sample horn arrangements to two new American Lips songs, the simultaneous feelings of glorious discovery and deep shame I felt in 1988 came flooding back”. Inspired by Wax Trax! Records, Shep Pettibone, Art Of Noise, and a hot cut from The Ghostbusters OST, American Lips shed the punky garage-wave of their 2017 debut LP “KissThe Void,” and take a hard-drive dumpster-dive, emerging with a kind of “sample-bank pop” -at once danceable, but stylistically hard to pin down (don't call it dance punk!). Double A-sides “Waste Of Crime” and “Labor Of Hate” are backed by extended dub remix“Labor Of Dub.” Fans of mid-80s Cabaret Voltaire, Ghostbusters OST, Decadent Dub Team, Rocket From The Crypt and Plastic Bertrand will rejoice in the exquisite peppering of influences in these new compositions.  WebSite: https://ancientfashionrecords.com/ D I S C O V E R Twitter: https://twitter.com/american_lips Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/americanlipsss Bandcamp: https://americanlips.bandcamp.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/americanlipsband Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/5srNG8oK8FdG7qe9jiH7p7?si=mkAMZTuzQnO2CWxt4nrmpQ Brought to you by AIXdspShop now and get up to 50% off on all plugins.Website: HEREPledge monthly with Patreon https://www.patreon.com/apologueShop Apologue products at http://apologue.ca
