It doesn’t matter how Sebastien Grainger and Jesse F. Keeler met and formed the Toronto rock duo Death From Above 1979 (either on a pirate ship or in prison, take your pick). All that really matters is that they found a way to blend power rock and dance floor sensibilities, finally giving today’s sound the swagger it’s been missing. Their iconic debut album, You’re a Woman, I’m a Machine has enough blaring riffs, off-beat lyrics, intense rhythms, and strong hooks to satisfy anyone. Their follow-up sophomore album, The Physical World, saw the band reuniting at Coachella + performing on David Letterman in 2014. With high praise from the likes of Kerrang (100% score), NME (90% score), Alt Press (90% score), etc, The Physical World subsequently won ROCK ALBUM OF THE YEAR at the 2015 JUNO Awards, along with debuting at #3 on the Billboard Top Alternative Albums Chart.
