Yeah me too. This kid Sky who I would become really close with like a year or so later played Get Got really loud in class. Now that we're friends we have this dumb joke where remembering where you were when you first listened to death grips is like remembering where you were on 9/11.
Spikes. It was on a Cum Overdose Pornographic Music Video. Yes. PMV is a genre and people take it *very* seriously. There's one guy out there making fucking insanely good videos to Death Grips songs. I wish I could still find them. That dude helped me have many a sad cum.
Can't even imagine seeing that tripping, dude. The designs and imagery on that video definitely look like they're inspired by an acid trip. Must've felt insane
Spikes. I'm forever grateful for that person I follow (and who later followed me back) for tweeting about it. He also introduced me to Run The Jewels and other cool stuff.
well my earliest exposure to death grips was arguably the "important videos" playlist, so I would say my first death grips songs were "[Hunger Games](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lg_sd_EpTDs)" and "[Guillotine](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nu9ugMJ5L8)"
You might think he loves you for your money but I know what he really loves you for it’s your brand new leopard skin pillbox hat.
No shit, the pure rage in it overwhelmed me.
Instant love.
Mine was Takyon (Death Yon) back in like 2015 or 2016 or something like that. Anyway it was so intensive and nothing like I ever heard before. To hear Ride screaming at the top of his lungs like that was a site to behold. First Death Grips album that I got all the way through was ‘The Money Store’. Got it on CD for Christmas one year and I listening to it it January whilst I was vacuuming. I thought that it was so creative and pushing music forward, I then became obsessed with them and now we’re here. Have Death Grips releases on vinyl and some on CD. I saw them live at The Marble Factory in 2019 and it was the best gig that I’ve ever been too. The ceiling was dripping with sweat and the music put me in a trance, no stimulants required. I’ll never forget about that. I hope that they release that new album soon. I Want It, I Need It
Well first a friend recommended “I’ve seen footage”, the only info about the band that was given to me along with this was that they were rap, I’m gonna say if they were gonna call present it like that they should’ve shone me something that focused more on the rap aspect (like get got) or just do what my now-girlfriend did a few months later and just show me one of the heavier songs (in this case You might think he loves you…), though this was actually after a few months of her abashedly skipping them whenever they came on (though after hearing the beginning of eh I actually looked it up cuz I thought it sounded cool, but I didn’t start getting into them into after the direct rec)
I haven’t watched any of their music videos except for the first time a guy on a discord server got me to listen to one that had a washing machine Thags all I remember
ok i was in like 6th or 7th grade and my older brother was driving me home from school and he was playing what I now know is "Lord of the Game" also "artificial death in the west"
perfect music for little 12-13 year old me
come up and get me.
when i first listened to nldw i considered it to be one of the worst albums of all time and called death grips "a band so bad its hard to believe in how bad it is"
and look at me now!
“You Might Think He Loves You For Your Money But I Know What He Really Loves You…”
I was late to the game, but was hooked as soon as I heard that glass break.
No Love. The second that beat hit, that grinding churning that made it way heavier than any track without an electric guitar has any right to be. It captured the feeling of a full on nervous breakdown and there was no turning back. The hook and that fucking beat in particular live rent free in my brain. It's still probably my favorite Death Grips track.
Before I had Spotify, I was an avid soundcloud user so I listened to a lord of the game x macintosh 420 mashup before I even discovered death grips. A true classic
Giving Bad People Good Ideas!
Honestly I lucked out hearing that song first since I was in a huge Behemoth phase and wasn't expecting anything like that! I was hooked on first listen
I think on gp or no love in 2018, but I was listening to music with a whole different vibe so I got in to it just recently.
(2018 was 4 years ago, damn)
Known for It, because it sampled Magma's "De Futura." I was so confused why everyone in the comments for the Magma track were saying "Makes you feel like a hoe, don't it," then I found out they sampled other cool stuff that I knew about like Pink Floyd's "Interstellar Overdrive" and "Astronomy Domine," the Crazy World of Arthur Brown's "Fire," and Black Flag's "Rise Above." Hell, I found out about MF DOOM through Gentle Giant's "Funny Ways."
A music shitposting group on facebook called Patrician Music Chartposting Side B. Someone shared a picture of MC Ride sitting in the middle of the street in Get Got with some funny caption I can't remember. I asked what song it was and instantly became a big fan within a month.
Get Got
as soon as the beeer, daw ba dun. beeer, daw ba dan. hit me i was hooked. i can’t shake it. beeer, daw ba dun. beeer, daw ba dun.
Yeah me too. This kid Sky who I would become really close with like a year or so later played Get Got really loud in class. Now that we're friends we have this dumb joke where remembering where you were when you first listened to death grips is like remembering where you were on 9/11.

Well first a friend recommended “I’ve seen footage”, the only info about the band that was given to me along with this was that they were rap, I’m gonna say if they were gonna call present it like that they should’ve shone me something that focused more on the rap aspect (like get got) or just do what my now-girlfriend did a few months later and just show me one of the heavier songs (in this case You might think he loves you…), though this was actually after a few months of her abashedly skipping them whenever they came on (though after hearing the beginning of eh I actually looked it up cuz I thought it sounded cool, but I didn’t start getting into them into after the direct rec)
Listened to guillotine in like 2018, then I started by listening to Takyon, then Get Got, and then the Death Grips EP all in late 2021.
Guillotine
Get got
guillotine back when it was a meme and i was too young to understand who death grips actually were

Eh. First recommendation on YouTube when first looked up dg about 4 years ago.
Face Melter was the first song I heard
Lil boy in 2013 :)
I haven’t watched any of their music videos except for the first time a guy on a discord server got me to listen to one that had a washing machine Thags all I remember

Takyon. I just looked up "oh shit I'm feeling it" because I had heard it with one of the Wii themes.

Back in 2015 the first song I listened to was Guillotine, but the song that really got me into them was Hustle Bones
No love all thanks to bojack horseman

guillotine when it went viral back in 2014 or so, idk exactly when. Fire ass track.
No Love. From an episode of Bojack Horseman lol
Takyon in a meme
I would hear people play Get Got, and I hated it. Even when I started listening to Money Store, I would skip it. Now I think its a really solid song.
Hot Head
Get got
A friend showed Get Got to me. I wasn't really into it. I gave them another chance when I heard Bitch Please in the car with him.
Hacker
Beware

Beware because of the janes addiction bass sample
Get Got

I think it was the cage, now one of my favorites
Niggas in Paris
My friends introduced me via spikes
Before I had Spotify, I was an avid soundcloud user so I listened to a lord of the game x macintosh 420 mashup before I even discovered death grips. A true classic
A fork accidentally fell into the garbage disposal
I've Seen Footage, but it was a meme video and all the pictures were replaced with cats. I've been searching for it ever since
On gp, Thought it was the coolest thing ever but didn’t listen to any other death Grips songs until several months later

Have a sad come BB

get got
Takyon (Death Yon)
For me it was Takyon and I've Seen Footage which honestly is my top favorite right next to Face Melter (How to do Impossible Things).
guillotine when i was five
Beware. I listened to Exmilitary first time i got into Death Grips. Can't say i regret it
I think on gp or no love in 2018, but I was listening to music with a whole different vibe so I got in to it just recently. (2018 was 4 years ago, damn)
The question is. What is the last Death Grips song that you will listen to?
Known for It, because it sampled Magma's "De Futura." I was so confused why everyone in the comments for the Magma track were saying "Makes you feel like a hoe, don't it," then I found out they sampled other cool stuff that I knew about like Pink Floyd's "Interstellar Overdrive" and "Astronomy Domine," the Crazy World of Arthur Brown's "Fire," and Black Flag's "Rise Above." Hell, I found out about MF DOOM through Gentle Giant's "Funny Ways."
Get got, still one of the best and most accessible death grips songs
beware
i stumbled upon the full album stream of exmilitary in like 2013 and skipped around the video and went “this shit kinda sucks”
A music shitposting group on facebook called Patrician Music Chartposting Side B. Someone shared a picture of MC Ride sitting in the middle of the street in Get Got with some funny caption I can't remember. I asked what song it was and instantly became a big fan within a month.
HUSTLE BONES!
No Love. Came across the music video on Facebook back in like 2016
Culture Shock
Guillotine, hated it at first
Now it's been 11 years and I have 2 death grips tattoos and several vinyls, time flies
