No Love Deep Web

Sunday, September 30th, 2012: Death Grips announces that their label, Epic Records, has delayed the release of No Love Deep Web until some time next year. They planned on releasing two records this year and Epic agreed to that, then suddenly decided otherwise. This, of course, is entirely unacceptable.

Monday, October 1st, 2012: At midnight, No Love Deep Web is immediately spread across the internet featuring a cock with the album title written on it as the album cover. As of this post, it has been downloaded over thirty-five million times via BitTorrent (the program) alone.

Zach plays electronic drums for every song on No Love Deep Web.

Death Grips wrap up

Most people are well aware of the fact that Death Grips cancelled their tour. They played both of their Coachella dates but all others were called off in order to finish their next record, No Love. They have been steadily releasing new videos for songs off The Money Store. "Blackjack", "Get Got", "The Fever (Aye Aye)", "I've Seen Footage", "Hustle Bones" and "Double Helix" are the six that have videos, so far. Death Grips will be releasing a new song through the Adult Swim Singles Program on 09/10/12 and will be featured on the upcoming LP by The Bug.

The Money Store on TAPE

As they did with the astounding mixtape Exmilitary, the new Death Grips album will also be available on CASSETTE. They will have it this friday at their Coachella performance. I feel that tape is the best medium for music so if you're getting one, please snag one for me!
