Searched it, couldnt find a thread. I'm a little surprised at that, but they were never big so I guess thats understandable.

They're a Two-Piece band, a drummer and a bassists, and as limiting as that sounds, they will rock your socks off. If you haven't heard, a quick YouTube search should fix that.

With them dying in 2006, I was pretty sad as they had stopped touring a while before that, and I only found them out about a year before they disbanded. Since 2011 they have started back up together, which I was stoked for, and news of their New CD, Physical World, has hit and set to release in September. They are also finally doing touring on the West Coast, at somewhere I can actually get too, So I'm excited for that as well.

I hope to Pre-Order this bundle, with the Vinyl. As for my expectations.. They are set high, but hopefully they are met. Although, their new song, Trainwreck 1979, Isn't what I'm wanting really. It just doesn't sound like the fast, and loud DFA1979 that I remember so well. I still have hope though, and dont mind supporting a band that I've loved for years.

Side note, Loved them so much, even went through the trouble to learn all of their songs on bass haha.

Love 'em, saw them live back when they reunited a few years ago but the sound at the venue was terrible.
 
I saw them in Seattle way back when with the Blood Brothers. Circa about '02ish. Awesome! By the way, I've always noticed your avatar and am always like "hey that guy knows what's up!"

Ah the Blood Brothers, that's another band that is about to come back from the dead as well, although it'll be at a music festival.

I should be seeing Death From Above 1979 in October, I think. First time they're going to play a west coast show that is actually somewhere I can get to :lol:

Thanks, I've had this avatar for a couple years now. I don't intend on changing it anytime soon.
 


Ugh, between this and Royal Blood's debut LP there's going to be a lot of fast and heavy bass blasting from my speakers this month!
