Death From Above 1979
Shiny Records
www.deathfromabove1979.com2058 bands played at this year's SXSW festival held in Austin, Texas. Only one band managed to steal
the spotlight from a Kanye/Jay-Z double header staged at a disused power plant. Only one band
created an entry queue longer than the one for Foo Fighters playing a pub show. There was only band
with more punters bragging they'd caught their gig than anyone bragging about catching Odd Future's. And
only one band caused a riot. Literally.
This is that band. They only have one album of glorious, raucous, dance-punk. Their break-up lasted 6 years, the make-up...a few months so far. They are only playing one Australian tour. This is it.
Exclusively appearing at Parklife 2011.
