Death From Above 1979, the Toronto-based duo of bassist and synth-man Jesse Keeler and vocalist and drummer Sebastien Grainger, delivered
abrasive industrial-grade heavily-syncopated hardcore
on the EP Heads Up (2002), with Dead Womb and Losing Friends, and on the album
You're a Woman I'm a Machine (2004)
that feels like a concept album about teenage sexual angst.
Their signature song Romantic Rights is the archetype of the style.
The rhythmic charge of Going Steady sounds like a more propulsive Cream mixed with stoner-metal.
The mildly melodic Blood on Our Hands,
the Deep Purple-esque Little Girl,
the psychobilly You're a Woman I'm a Machine
and especially chamber melodrama Black History Month
guarantee enough variety to the show.
Romance Bloody Romance (2005) collects remixes and rarities.
Keeler and producer Al-P formed MSTRKRFT that released the much more conventional dance album The Looks (2006).
Death From Above returned after a long hiatus with
The Physical World (2014), containing The Physical World and Trainwreck 1979,
Outrage! Is Now (2017), containing Freeze Me and 8 All I C Is U & Me,
and
Is 4 Lovers (2021), containing
NYC Power Elite Part I & II.
