Death Grips Announce 2023 North American Tour

Death Grips have waken from their post-COVID slumber, announcing their first tour after nearly four years off the road.

The hyper aggressive and experimental rap-rock hybrid act were added to a number of festival bills for 2023, including Sick New World , Primavera Sound and Outbreak Festival, but it turns out those performances won’t be one-offs.

Death Grips will begin their 2023 North American tour on May 4 in Portland, Ore. and stick around the west until May 21. After a break, they’ll reemerge in the summer, hitting the rest of the U.S. and Canada until Oct. 7.

Death Grips Will Be Going On Tour In 2023 For The First Time In Four Years

When Death Grips last toured in 2019, they were on the heels of their mysterious , abrasive, and compelling last album, Year Of The Snitch . The Sacramento-forged trio of Zach Hill, MC Ride , and Andy Morin blazed a trail for horrorcore-minded experimental rappers who could never quite replicate the visceral nature of Death Grips’ music. Now they’ve announced a new tour of North America for 2023, but no word yet on if this means a new album is on deck.

The tour begins on May 4th, 2023 in Portland and the band will be touring furiously through the Western US (with a Canadian date) that month, before starting an East Coast swing in September and October.

Tickets for the Death Grips 2023 tour go on sale Friday, 12/9 at 10 a.m. local time here . Check out the full list of Death Grips tour dates below.

Death Grips (formed in 2011) is an American experimental hip-hop group, also dubbed industrial and noise hip-hop. Know for their displays of spontaneous destruction and musical improvisation, the band hails from Sacramento, California, U.S.

Since the band’s formation in December 2010, Death Grips’ output has been prolific and quick to garner critical acclaim. Formed of rapper Stefan Burnett, also known by his stage name Ride, drummer Zach Hill, and producer Andy Morin, Death Grips recorded their debut song “Full Moon (Death Classic) on their first day together as a group. The song earned its release in March 2011 along with four other tracks that made up their debut EP “Full Moon”. A month later the mixtape “Exmilitary” appeared for free download and it slowly made its way across the blogosphere, generating an intense buzz for the band.

In February 2012 Death Grips singed with Epic Records at the request of marketing vice-president Angelica Cob-Baehler. The band’s label debut “The Money Store” was released in April 2012 to critical acclaim following reviews from Pitchfork Media, Drowned in Sound, and Allmusic. Aided by the singles “Blackjack”, “Get Got”, and “The Fever (Aye Aye)”, the album charted respectively on the Alternative, Heatseekers, Rap, and Rock album charts. Death Grips had intended to embark on a thirty-date international tour, however to the disappointment of their fans and label, the band headed back into the studio to work on their sophomore release.

The fruits of that recording period surfaced as “No Love Deep Web” in October 2012. Self-released on file-sharing services via links posted from their social media accounts, the band were subsequently dropped from Epic Records. Like its predecessor, the album earned strong reviews from critics and fans despite the graphic nature of the album cover, and even topped BitTorrent’s “List of Most Legally Downloaded Music” with 34,151,432 downloads. Following the release Death Grips embarked on their promised worldwide tour including shows in London, Paris, and Sydney. During this time the band also remixed two Björk tracks “Sacrifice” and “Thunderbolt” for her “Biophilia Remix Series”.

In July 2013 Death Grips launched their label Third Worlds in partnership with Harvest and Capitol Records, on which they released their fourth full-length album “Government Plates”. Led by the single “Birds”, the album was once again uploaded by the band to multiple fire-sharing sites, and earned a vinyl release for Record Store Day. The instrumental soundtrack album “Fashion Week” was released by the band in January 2015, and marked the first record since Death Grips’ disbandment in 2014. The double-disc full-length “The Powers That B” followed in March 2015, and saw the return of Ride’s vocals to the band’s mix. The record features vocal contributions from Björk and was led by the single “Inanimate Sensation”.

Live reviews

Holy shit. That was all we could say after the Death Grips concert. When I had gotten in line at Trees in Dallas, Texas and met up with some awesome 16-year olds from Oklahoma who had made the trek just to see hip hop's bleakest and most unique act, we thought we had an idea of what we'd be in for. But it still felt like a surprise when the curtains opened and MC Ride (born Stefan Burnett) came on stage with a purposeful visage. The kind of look that made you feel like he despised everyone in the room. But people started jumping, screaming and moshing, to the point where those who didn't want to fight and just wanted to enjoy the music had to collect a bit further away from the stage. I was one of those people, but I still had a great view of Ride, drummer Zach Hill and producer Flatlander. They played so many cuts from across their discography, underground hits like "get got" and "I've Seen Footage" to more obscure and obtuse tracks from Government Plates and The Powers That B, like "You Might Thinks He Loves You For Your Money" and one of my personal favorites, "Up My Sleeves". They played short versions of some tracks, and they didn't stop for a single second. There were no breaks. Every single track lead into another and MC Ride only stopped for water and to wipe the sweat off his face. Death Grips' performance of "Inanimate Sensation" was one of my favorite performances of the night. And Burnett's vocal delivery varied drastically from the record during some songs. At certain points he was straight-up cackle-talking like a demon. And in turn, I had voices coming out of me that I had never heard before, and they were all rapping along with him. The energy of the crowd was unyielding, but even it couldn't compare to the energy of Death Grips themselves. The fact that they could nearly an hour of songs without a break is a feat. Although it's to be expected from Zach Hill, who has broken his testicles twice during performances. After the concert was over, Death Grips left without a single word. And everyone immediately headed to the bar and the bathroom to get some goddamn water and wonder whether that had really just happened. Once I left Trees with my new friends, we went to the parking lot and gushed about the life-changing experience we had just had in there. There were people in the parking lot smoking cigarettes like they had just had sex. All in all, Death Grips at Trees was a sacrilegious experience. Some on Twitter called one of their shows "the Devil's rave", and that's even more true than I thought it was going to be. I urge you, if you're a fan of Death Grips, see one of their shows if they are coming to your area. It will be one of the most memorable experiences of your life.

Report as inappropriate

“I’ve got the powers that B, running through me!” A shirtless MC Ride was marking his territory on the large, spacious stage in front of a violently enthusiastic audience. Zach Hill, also shirtless, was doing his best Animal impression behind the drum kit. Andy Morin (aka Flatlander) was stoically standing behind his station, while his fingers were hard at work decimating thousands of eardrums with the deafening sounds of Fashion Week. “My favorite color is OH MY GOD BITCH!” Ride, seemingly not giving a shit that OH MY GOD BITCH isn’t a color, and that he was bellowing this nonsensical declaration over what was supposed to be an instrumental track, created microbursts within the crowd. Small pits would form and disperse as waves of bodies broke along the railing. The performance had just begun and Ride had already commanded control of the chaos.

Death Grips are a band (sorry, I mean a ‘conceptual art exhibition anchored by sound and vison’) that is notorious for showing a complete lack of professionalism when it comes to meeting obligations. The fact that they were on stage at the Ogden Theatre was a wonder in itself, but to see Ride, Hill and Flatlander performing in full 3D was the equivalent of witnessing villains climbing out of an old comic book and then proceeding to pillage your hometown. Death Grips are only three men, but they came equipped with the noise of legions. And although they don’t like to fuck with the physical world all that much, they were completely successful in dragging the depths of the Deep Web to the surface last night. I can’t claim to understand who or what Death Grips are. I just know I have a not-so-healthy relationship with their music. It just hurts so good. They were only a minute and a half into their hour and a half set and they were already dishing out enough pain and humiliation to make any masochist happy.

Absolutely nuts. Death Grips were fantastic, playing for an hour straight, moving from one song to the next without any pause. The atmosphere was electric and infectious from the first song to last. They came out with laser lights attached to their fingers and heads that created a fantastic unique light show as they played, making the lights very literally match the beats and energy of each song and each members movements. The crowd was amazingly wild and the pit was brutal in all the best ways. Everyone was extremely respectful and followed moshing etiquette to the letter despite the pit being the most insane thing I've ever seen at a concert. The concert was a once in a lifetime experience and something I will never forget. There is nothing quite like seeing Death Grips live while going absolutely nuts in the pit with a hundred other people losing themselves in the music as well, sweating, bumping, pushing, moshing, and flailing against each other, feeding on the energy and atmosphere of the music and their peers. The entire venue wasn't one giant mosh pit as there were 3 distinct sections, one specifically being dedicated to the pit so if you aren't the type of person looking for such a violent or insane experience, there will always still be a place at the concert for you to just watch, dance, sway to the music, take in the visuals and experience, and do your own thing. You may still be brushing up against people but that's always to be expected with any general admission concert and honestly I think that aspect helps create community and adds a lot to the experience. Overall, this is the greatest cocnert experience I have had and I will 100% be seeing them again if they ever come anywhere near my town again. No exceptions. 10/10

It’s all very well going along to see a band and not knowing what to expect, but one should at least feel pretty strong in your conviction that the band are going to show up. It hasn’t always been the case with Sacramento’s formidable experimental rap outfit Death Grips, but the times they have graced the stage (which is, to be fair to them, far more often than not), have been such visceral experiences that folks seems willing to turn a blind eye the odd no-show. Poor date keeping seems pretty fitting with their unashamedly confrontational manner of going about being in a “band” (in the loosest sense of the term) anyway, what with their live shows being some of the most unhinged displays of maniacal rapping from MC Ride and drumming from Hella’s inimitable Zach Hill one could ever sensibly wish for. Battered snare drums often end up splattered with Hill’s blood when not thrown across the stage in a destructive huff, and avoiding eye contact with MC Ride is advice you should take great care in noting down, but for unadulterated and not a little dangerous levels of perverse musical enjoyment, there’s really not much beating Death Grips.

Sacramento hip hop trio Death Grips have created a live show that is considered something of a ritual as opposed to a simple gig. They are known for their incredibly experimental attitude towards live conventions and every tours sees them attempt to reinvent themselves or work in something new when performing. Therefore the audience gathered tonight really does not have any idea as to what they are about to witness. For some this is incredibly exciting yet others feel slightly uneasy as the dim lights illuminate the stage and the three figures stand ominously casting large shadows.

The awkward silence is broken by huge, piercing drums as the half naked musicians appear to spring into life and throw themselves to opener 'Lost Boys'. They run through a setlist comprising exclusively of the first three albums at blistering speeds. Each member is completely transfixed in a frantic musical zone as they screech, rap and chant over the chaotic instrumentals. By the finale of 'Lock Your Doors' every musician is drenched in sweat and the applause received seems very much earned.

The show started off very intense as we all stood there for just under 2 hours with this rising synthetic tone similar to 'Inanimate Sensation'. Then Death Grips show up on stage Andy Morin waved to us, then the show started as soon as Zach, Andy and Stefan took ahold of their instruments and it was literally 2 hours non stop 25 tracks no breaks no talking to the crowd no intro just 25 cutthroat bangers from Death Grips I also felt the fans were very respectable and were good hearted people especially since I was nervous at first as I was at the show alone. But I soon got comfortable as everyone was there for the same reason and we were all there enjoying the music. They performed few tracks from all of their projects including the Death Grips EP. The show was insane and there was no outro some flashy lights that went to black and Stefan and Zach was gone when the lights came back up and Andy gave us a little wave and that was it no encore no interaction (Apart from the little waves and nods) just non stop bangers and abrasive music. Was lit.

The worst, and really annoying thing about this gig was the incompetence of the venue staff. Having just *one* person searching every gig-goer at a time meant that almost all of us were queueing for hours. When I got into the venue, for example, having stood in line for two hours, Death Grips had already started their set! That was extremely annoying, and the venue need to sort out a better arrangement. All of us had paid (quite a lot) to attend the *whole* gig, not just the bits that were left of it after we'd finished queuing.

When I did get in, though, the gig was pretty good. Death Grips ran through material from all their albums (or at least the four I know), and did so without a break! Highlights (for me, anyway) were 'I've seen Footage', 'Up my Sleeves', and 'Giving Bad People Good Ideas', the opener from the new album 'Bottomless Pit'. MC Ride was fantastically animated throughout, and I'd definitely go and see them again (but not at this venue!).

Noided, in terms of whether I'll ever have sensitive hearing ever again or if what I'm perceiving to hear is what I'm actually hearing.

They had no support act, which I'm not sure is a usual trope of their live shows. Prior to Stefan, Zach and Andy's arrival onstage, there was a bass-heavy drone that is very difficult to describe without actually experiencing it. That really built up the suspense and anticipation for their set, which was just non-stop one song after another performed with a very infectious energy that was spread into the crowd. The weird thing about them having no breaks or hesitations between tracks was that their set felt both very long and very short simultaneously; once it had finished I felt that I needed closure, without realising they had performed for an hour and thirty minutes haha. A great time nontheless, but wear earplugs (y)

There was a point at which I genuinely thought, "Oh shit, I've gone deaf." Parts of "Steroids" and "Giving Bad People Good Ideas" were so insanely loud it felt like I was underwater; the sound had taken on a physical quality I had never experienced (and I've seen these guys before). It was an hour of relentless brutality. There's nothing quite like a Death Grips show. My ears are still shot, but the first thing I did when I woke up this morning and started my commute was pop on "Steroids." Love this band so much, and their live shows reinforce that love. Stay noided!

This was the best show I have ever attended. The Fillmore was a cool venue. I was at the very front of the crowd and I wilded out for the entirety of the show. At one point, I lost my balance and threw my arm around a guy to catch myself, and before I could do anything he put his arm around me and we stayed like that for the rest of the song. I highly recommend everyone see Death Grips in order to have a life changing experience. I also recommend wearing high fidelity earplugs when you go! They reduce the sound to safe levels without changing the quality of the music.

Review: Death Grips return to Minneapolis on their long-awaited comeback tour

Returning to Minneapolis for the first time in six years, the trailblazing industrial hip-hop trio Death Grips headlined a concert at the Fillmore and delivered a set that felt like a highlight reel of their inventive 2010s output.

The crowd of hipsters, goths and sweaty shirtless dudes was packed like sardines on the floor of the Fillmore as they awaited the sole act of the night, Death Grips. The ensuing performance proved to be a satisfactory release of energy for both the musicians on stage and the nearly 2,000 fans inside.

Amid speculation the band had broken up, fans were surprised last year when the lineup for the Las Vegas musical festival Sick New World included the group. This was the first Death Grips news since the pandemic hit, and the band subsequently announced a full North American tour.

Taking the stage in total darkness, Death Grips went from zero to 100 by opening the setlist with “System Blower” and “I’ve Seen Footage,” two noisy highlights from their decade-defining classic album “The Money Store.” As the distorted melodies of “I’ve Seen Footage,” one of Death Grips’ best-known tracks, rang out, the mosh pit was set ablaze with energy.

Impressively, vocalist and rapper MC Ride, a man in his mid-40s, still exudes the stunning level of primal ferocity he displayed across the group’s six studio albums, commanding the room effortlessly despite being decades older than much of the crowd.

For just over an hour, there was a flurry of bodies coalescing in the mosh pit for almost every song, with circle pits forming for some of the most high-powered tracks such as “Get Got,” another fan favorite from “The Money Store.”

By and large, the industrial trio stayed faithful to the studio renditions of the songs during their Minneapolis live performance. However, the band changed it up with their rendition of “Bubbles Buried in this Jungle,” one of the strongest songs off their 2016 album “Bottomless Pit.” On the studio recording, the track is driven by an electronic bassline and industrial-electro-trap production. But, when performing it live, the band took it into a more noise-rock direction defined by distorted guitar and Zach Hill’s loud, cymbal-heavy drum performance.

The set hit its climax with the song “Black Paint,” a single from their, as of now, final studio album “Year of the Snitch.” It is a visceral industrial rock track that lends itself to hardcore pogo-dancing and left many concert attendees breathless.

The final song, “Hacker,” was the peak in energy from both the band and the crowd, as MC Ride jumped up and down on stage — and the fans on the floor following suit — to one of the group’s most iconic lyrics, “ I know the first three numbers , I’m in — I’m in your area, I’m in your area .”

Appearing as silhouettes for the entire show because of the deliberate choice to have as little front-facing stage light as possible, Death Grips were as mysterious and energetic as ever on their 2023 tour. While the prospect of new Death Grips material would be exciting after all these years, the typical Death Grips die-hard that attended the show was probably indifferent to this fact, as the band showing up to perform at all is a miracle in and of itself given their track record . 

Death Grips do not come to the Twin Cities often, so, for many, this felt like their only opportunity to see them in person. The band met expectations by putting on a visceral live show of experimental music, actualizing their signature primal energy in front of the Twin Cities crowd — you can not say the same for just about any other band fronted by a man in his 40s. Death Grips has still got it.
