Death From Above 1979 at House of Blues

Canadian dance punk duo Death from Above 1979 amassed a cult following in the early '00s with their critically-praised recordings and monolithic live shows, and a 2016 live EP recorded at Jack White's Third Man Records in Nashville proves they remain a force to be reckoned with in concert. The pair's uptempo songs pack a serious punch, and audiences can't help but feel the power of Jesse F. Keeler's fuzz-laden basslines on standouts like "Romantic Rights," "Blood on Our Hands," and "Trainwreck 1979." Drummer/singer Sebastian Grainger keeps the energy on 10, kicking the tempo into overdrive and delivering his heartbreak lyrics with his fiery vocals. As the pair dive-bombs fans with an unrelenting barrage of supercharged riffs and heart-pounding beats, ticket buyers are more than happy to join in on the distortion-heavy dance party.
