Death Grips Essentials

Death Grips Essentials

Everything about MC Ride’s delivery is furious, but the Death Grips aesthetic owes as much to beatmaker Zach Hill’s manic thrash production. The California group broke through in a big way with their 2012 debut album, The Money Store, pairing helter-skelter industrial electronics with riotous noise-punk and hip-hop force. It’s impossible to listen to Death Grips and not feel a distinct anger crackling through every composition, but the precisely crafted turbulence of tracks like “Hacker” and the uncompromising construction of “Guillotine” find a deranged harmony in the disorder of their music.
