DFA 1979
Another case of reading a thweet review and feeling an automatic kinship with a band I had never heard.
Received the Remix CD as a gift, and am loving it so far. Still have never heard the band non-remixed. Anyone here like them?

That's like the only rock band that I liked this year! Two canadian freaks - a singing-screaming drummer and the other one has a bass-guitar and
a synthie - going totally wild.. My favorite tune is 'Romantic Rights'. You gotta check it out!
btw, they had to call themselves Death From Above 1979 because the record label of LCD Soundsystem and stuff already had the
name DFA..

Out of all the amazing Canadian bands why do they have to blow up...try checking out some west coast stuff(fuck Toronto, haha). Vancouver has a very
good over looked indie scene. Look up You say party! We say die!, Fun 100, the organ and bakelite.

Well I d/l'd the album from iTunes, and feel like a chump for spending almost a year ignorant of this KICKASS band! I would like nothing more
than to see them play live.
89.3 The Current is having this promotion where listeners can submit three songs to be played during the noon hour next week, I submitted Romantic
Rights by DFA, Age of Consent by New Order, and High Rise by Ladytron, a bitching set if I do say so myself.
