DEATH GRIPS IN CONCERT:
Death Grips bring a punk rock fury to the usually laid back grooves of hip hop, create a chaotic and riveting stage show with their manic energy and wild-eyed stage presence. Rapper Stefan Burnett (AKA MC Ride) embodies the group’s take-no-prisoners mentality, assuming a relentless and shirtless persona that combines the best onstage characteristics of Iggy Pop and Eazy-E. Drummer Zach Hill unleashes unorthodox Gene Krupa-esque beats with an avant-garde bent and relentless drive. On top of his frantic and erratic movements, producer Andy Morin increases the foreboding fracas on stage by layering lo-fi synthesizers and off-kilter sound collages. As they wreak havoc on their 2015 North American tour, Death Grips are sure to thrill ticket buyers seeking an extreme concert experience.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Death Grips was founded in 2010 by Sacramento, CA natives Stefan Burnett (AKA MC Ride), Zach Hill, and Andy Morin. During their wildly energetic early live shows, the experimental hip hop trio gave out free demos to help promote the band. The tactic paid off, as the group caught the attention of Epic Records in 2012. That same year the group released their first two full-length albums The Money Store and No Love Deep Web. Ini 2014 Death Grips announced the double album The Powers That B, but one month later they cancelled all scheduled dates and broke up. Footage of the group rehearsing new material in early 2015 had fans hoping that the breakup would be short-lived, and the band confirmed these suspicions by announcing several live dates and releasing The Powers That B in 2015. Reunited, the group continues to offer a high-concept, high-energy spin on the world of hip hop.

I already had a hint of how electrical would be to attend such an event, but even that wasn't enough to prepare me for the experience. Just a wicked adventure from start to finish! The public was amazing and the band didn't dissapoint one bit, playing every song non stop until they finished their setlist. It is a must for every fan of Death Grips
The death grips mosh pit is no place for a 16 year old girl but once i was out of the suffocation zone it was super fun. Love death grips. Lost my shoe at the beginning of the show and had to mosh without it but i got it back so its fine. Overall super duper fun loved it got some merch
This was my first concert of an individual artist/group, I had been to a few festivals in the past but none of them compared to this. I did hear that people unfortunately got hurt or had their night ruined by a few guests who went out of their way to cause havoc, but for me personally, I had an amazing time. I was a little hesitant flying down just to see this concert with a friend, but I'll certainly be doing it again if they do another show in Dallas!
The energy, the intensity, the people made this concert the best experience. Death Grips made everyone go into a frenzy in the best way possible.
The entire experience was fabulous. I can’t stop thinking about it even days after the concert is over. I almost died in the pit but that’s ok.
This being my 3rd time to see Death Grips, it was by far, the best show I have been to. The band was on fire, and the crowd was eating it up. Everyone was singing along, jumping, dancing, freaking, tweaking, and everything in between. It was epic!
Their performance was incredible. So much energy, they came out on schedule, and did not waste a second of time. As soon as they came out it was 100% until the end of the last song. It ended and they didn’t wait around for an encore either. 90 minutes of intensity. May have been the best concert I’ve ever been to.
