Stream/Download Death Grips’ Surprise Album, ‘Government Plates’

Oh, Death Grips, you always have something up your sleeves. Well, not Stefan. He doesn’t wear shirts so he has no sleeves.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD: Death Grips – “Birds”

When Death Grips aren’t stirring up some trouble they’re working hard on music you’ve likely never heard the likes of before. They recently came under fire for not showing up at their scheduled performance at Lollapalooza, and instead showed a suicide note made by a fan. That hasn’t stopped them though, and now they’ve released […]

Death Grips have the “Attention Starved Whores Who Will Do Anything In The Realm Of The Bizarre Of The Year” award clinched.

Crowd Destroys Equipment After Death Grips Skip Lollapalooza Aftershow, Publish Fan’s Crazy Suicide Note

The Death Grips saga is one of many bizarre turns. The last post we had on the noise hip hop group featured drummer Zach Hill handcuffing himself and playing the drums impressively while cuffed.

WATCH: Death Grips Talk About Leaving Their Label

Death Grips have done the punkest of rock things to do, going from an unsigned up-and-coming noise rap band, to a major label artist, to a band screwing around with their label’s expectations, to an ex-major label artist who aren’t really looking for help on their next album release. They’ve basically done all that this […]

HOLY SH!T: Death Grips Dropped From Epic Records

Death Grips Battle With Epic Records Continues

We anticipated this sort of dispute here at UTG. A major label signing one of the most risky and unusual acts surprised us early this year, with Epic Records signing Death Grips as odd as an odd couple gets. Over a month ago, the hardcore rap group released a stream of their most recent album, No […]
