Holy. Fuck.

This is the band Death From Above 1979.

(click pics to enlarge)

This is what their bassist looks like from one foot away.

This is what a 5’5”, 120 lb girl looks like when she’s being tagged from behind by a 400-capacity venue against the edge of a stage.

This is what rock should be like. My uterus is broken.

Here is a short, awesome video someone made of them playing “Blood On Our Hands”:
DFA1979 – Blood On Our Hands (live 11/7/05)

Here is some music:
DFA1979 – "Little Girl"
DFA1979 – "Little Girl [MSTRKRFT Remix]"
DFA1979 – "Black History Month [Josh Homme remix]"
DFA1979 – You’re a Woman, I’m A Machine (streaming)

Show highlights: the drummer of Japanther tossing his symbol into the audience, which nailed some guy in the face and made a jagged cut across his right eye; Sebastien Granger, the DFA drummer, briefly played Kanye West’s “Golddigger”, tried to get a roadie to say “nigger”, then laughed at the US for being afraid of the N-word – and added that there are no black people in Canada, just “Canadians and Jamaicans”.


There is blood on our hands tonight,

Andrea
