The group officially formed December 21, 2010, and released its first single and video for "Full Moon (Death Classic)" on March 8, 2011. On April 26, 2011, they released their debut album, the mixtape Exmilitary. NBCNewYork.com called it "an intense, dark listen."
On February 27, 2012 Death Grips signed with Epic and released two albums the same year. The first official album, The Money Store, was released on April 24. Music videos were made for the singles "Blackjack," "Get Got," and "Fever (Aye Aye)." The track "Lost Boys" was also released alone with no video accompaniment.
After a month and a half long ARG involving the deep web, and a spat with Epic over its release, Death Grips leaked the album No Love Deep Web on its website on October 1st, 2012. This resulted in someone closing down the band's website. The band said it was done by the label, which the label denied shortly.
On November 13, 2013, the band spontaneously made available their third LP within two years, Government Plates. The album was posted to their soundcloud page and website, much like No Love Deep Web, but without any sort of lead up or prior hype, except one single, Birds released months beforehand, taking most listeners by complete surprise.
On June 8, 2014, Death Grips released the first half of a new double album featuring BjΓΆrk, The Powers That B. Disc 1 is titled Niggas on the Moon, and features heavy sampling of BjΓΆrk's vocal snippets. Disc 2 is titled Jenny Death.
On July 2, 2014, Death Grips announced on Facebook that they have canceled all tour dates, and are finished as a band, stating: "we are now at our best and so Death Grips is over. we have officially stopped. all currently scheduled live dates are canceled. our upcoming double album "the powers that b" will still be delivered worldwide later this year via Harvest/Third Worlds Records. Death Grips was and always has been a conceptual art exhibition anchored by sound and vision. above and beyond a "band". to our truest fans, please stay legend."
On March 24, 2015, Death Grips announced a world tour, confirming the group is currently active. Their double album, The Powers That B was released officially on March 31, 2015.
On February 7, 2016 the single "Hot Head" from their upcoming album "Bottomless Pit" was dropped.
On March 13, 2016, a video was posted on their official channel of the band being interviewed by Matthew Hoffman. The original audio was removed and replaced with instrumentals made by the band.
On March 18, 2016, the band released more information about the upcoming album, Bottomless Pit. The front and back covers were shown as well as the track list.
Bottomless Pit was released on May 6, 2016, with "Hot Head" and "Eh" as singles. Music videos were produced for "Eh" and "Giving Bad People Good Ideas".
On May 30, 2016, Death Grips released a new track, "More Than the Fairy" featuring musician Les Claypool.
On May 22, 2017, Death Grips announced they were working on a new album, while simultaneously releasing a track/mix entitled "Steroids (Crouching Tiger Hidden Gabber Megamix)", featuring 7 new songs.
In March of 2018, the trio posted two photos on their Instagram account (@bbpoltergiest) stating that they were working on the new record with Andrew Adamson, the director of the Shrek series, and Justin Chancellor, the bassist from Tool.
On March 22, 2018, the band announced on their website (thirdworlds.net) that their new album "Year of the Snitch" was "coming soon..."
April 6, 2018, the cover artwork for "Year of the Snitch" is posted on the band's Facebook page.
On June 22nd, Year of the Snitch was released accompanied by five singles: Shitshow, Hahaha, Flies, Black Paint and Streaky. Rolling Stone would go on to name Black Paint song of the summer.

Death Grips Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come again come get it
Seen it happening before it even happened swing the door open and buck 'em down
Course I'm just fuckin' around
But nevermind the way it sound
Everytime we make it pound
Straight into the pavement now
Whip it, bleed it, cause it pain
Eat it, shit it out and change
Lanes at speeds that seem insane,
To them petty pussy brains
Push me and they will be slain
Drag this past the point and claim
That shit as if it was your name
Like its attached to yours with chains
Own it 'til shit goes up in flames
And there really aint no one to blame
No one to blame, its all the same
Like blurred faces on subway trains
Cant take it man, cant take the pain
Pain of the game
Makes me insane
Makes me fuck up my whole thang
What'd you bring
Where'd you get it
Give here I said dont sweat it
I'm gonna take it around for a bit
And I dont care if you give a shit
Punk.
I'm gonna take it around for a bit
And I dont care if you give a shit
Punk... BITCH...
Goin through the motions
Just to make shit happen right,
Never knowin where we're goin
Just rollin' like waves at night
Make it or break it just dont sleep on it
Sleepers get shot down you lost it,
Trying to act like you got it
Nevermind t he way it sound
Every time we make it pound
Straight into the pavement now
Shot it up, get it hot, what
I know you know you said too much,
Did too much, way too much
Fuck that shit man that shit sucks
Volume turned all the way up
You already know its going down
I'll tell you when I've had enough
Shut up right now
Feel it in my gut right now
Throw it up, give it up like OWW
Buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck BLOU
get up... get up...
All over the place, all in your face
All up in it, talkin bout cant wait,
To bring it even harder the next,
Time I creep through the beat possessed
Howling on that mountain peak
Feeling like hells up in my chest
Feel the fire rise, rise so high, so high I rise
Eye to eye with death
Gazing through me like an uzi
Spraying through me bag of flesh
Body bag of flesh
Aint nothing left
Toe tag me up zip the bag and check it
Oh no he's been resurrected
Get up. get up.
Zombie holocaust in seconds
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide
From what we know, down deep inside
Hell if I know, just wanna ride
Until the wheels, fall off and I
Run off the road, know telling why
Hear them cry
Man I just don't wanna die
Just dont wanna why
Is everything always happening
In the blink of eye
This better be the last time me
Ever see you in my life
Steadily to the death passing
Everything that dont seem tight
Goin through the motions
Just to make shit happen right
Never knowin' where we're goin
Just rollin' like waves at night
The lyrics to Death Grips's song Full Moon are full of violent and aggressive imagery, suggesting a sense of chaos and unpredictability in the world. The opening lines "Hit it, split it, make it cum get wetted, Come again come get it" could refer to sexual conquest, but it also has a dark undertone of violence and domination. The singer of the song seems to revel in the destruction he causes, boasting "Every time we make it pound, Straight into the pavement now".
The chorus, "No one to blame, it's all the same, Like blurred faces on subway trains, Can't take it man, can't take the pain", suggests a sense of apathy and despair towards the state of the world, where all faces are blurred and indistinguishable. The singer seems overwhelmed by the pain and chaos surrounding them, and feels powerless to change it.
In the second verse, the lyrics become more confrontational and defiant, with lines like "Shot it up, get it hot, what, I know you know you said too much, Did too much, way too much, Fuck that shit man that shit sucks". The singer seems to be lashing out at an undefined enemy or society at large, declaring that they will "Make it or break it, just don't sleep on it".
Overall, the lyrics to Full Moon convey a sense of nihilism and rage towards the world, with the singer embracing violence and destruction as a means of coping with their powerlessness.
Line by Line Meaning
Hit it, split it, make it cum get wetted,
Let's go hard and make it happen
Come again come get it
Let's keep going forward and not look back
Seen it happening before it even happened swing the door open and buck 'em down
I'm always one step ahead and will take down anyone in my way
Course I'm just fuckin' around
I may be joking, but I'm serious about what I do
But nevermind the way it sound
Don't pay attention to what I say, focus on what I do
Everytime we make it pound
Every time we make a move, we make sure it has impact
Straight into the pavement now
We hit hard and don't stop until we reach the bottom
Whip it, bleed it, cause it pain
We'll push ourselves and everything around us to the limit
Eat it, shit it out and change
We'll consume everything and use it for our own benefit
Lanes at speeds that seem insane,
We move fast and don't slow down for anyone
To them petty pussy brains
To those who can't keep up with our intensity
Push me and they will be slain
Anyone who tries to challenge us will be defeated
Drag this past the point and claim
We don't stop until we've gone beyond our limits
That shit as if it was your name
We take ownership of our actions and never back down
Like its attached to yours with chains
We're fully committed and won't let anything hold us back
Own it 'til shit goes up in flames
We'll continue to dominate until there's nothing left
And there really aint no one to blame
The path we've chosen is our own and no one else's
No one to blame, its all the same
We're all equals in the face of our own destruction
Like blurred faces on subway trains
Everyone's part of the same machine, moving in unison
Cant take it man, cant take the pain
The consequences of our actions are inevitable and unbearable
Pain of the game
The agony that comes with our relentless pursuit of success
Makes me insane
It drives me crazy, but I can't stop
Makes me fuck up my whole thang
Sometimes our obsession causes us to self-destruct
What'd you bring
What do you have to offer?
Where'd you get it
Where did you obtain what you have to offer?
Give here I said dont sweat it
Just hand it over, it's not worth worrying about
I'm gonna take it around for a bit
I'll take this and use it as I see fit
And I dont care if you give a shit
I'll do what I want regardless of what others think
Punk.
I'm not afraid to confront anyone who opposes me
Goin through the motions
We're taking the steps necessary to achieve our goals
Just to make shit happen right,
We're focused on executing our plan flawlessly
Never knowin where we're goin
We don't have a clear destination, but we're not stopping
Just rollin' like waves at night
We're unpredictable and relentless, like the ocean
Make it or break it just dont sleep on it
We're taking a huge risk, and we can't afford to be lazy
Sleepers get shot down you lost it,
Those who aren't completely dedicated to the cause won't survive
Trying to act like you got it
Faking confidence won't get you anywhere
Shot it up, get it hot, what
We're pumping ourselves up and getting ready to go hard
I know you know you said too much,
We're fully aware that our actions come with consequences
Did too much, way too much
We're pushing ourselves further than anyone else would dare
Fuck that shit man that shit sucks
We don't care about failure or setbacks, we'll keep pushing
Volume turned all the way up
We're ready to unleash everything we've got
You already know its going down
We're about to make a huge impact, and everyone can feel it
I'll tell you when I've had enough
We'll keep pushing ourselves until we can't anymore
Shut up right now
We don't have time for distractions or setbacks
Feel it in my gut right now
We're going all in, and we can feel it deep down
Throw it up, give it up like OWW
We're taking action and not holding anything back
Buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck BLOU
We're leaving our mark and making an impact that can't be ignored
get up... get up...
We're not stopping anytime soon, we'll keep pushing ourselves
All over the place, all in your face
We're unpredictable and chaotic, and that's part of our power
All up in it, talkin bout cant wait,
We're fully committed and confident, and we can't wait to unleash our full potential
To bring it even harder the next,
We're always pushing ourselves to the next level, and there's no limit to what we can achieve
Time I creep through the beat possessed
We're always in control, pushing the boundaries and taking full ownership of our actions
Howling on that mountain peak
We're filled with passion and intensity, and will do anything to reach our goals
Feeling like hells up in my chest
We're constantly pushing ourselves to the limit and it's taking a toll on us
Feel the fire rise, rise so high, so high I rise
We're filled with raw energy and passion, and our potential is limitless
Eye to eye with death
We're not afraid to face our own mortality, and will live our lives with intensity and purpose
Gazing through me like an uzi
We're intimidating and unstoppable, and we'll take down anyone in our way
Spraying through me bag of flesh
We're relentless and won't give up until we've achieved our goals
Body bag of flesh
We're fully committed to the cause, and our bodies will pay the price
Aint nothing left
We'll push ourselves to the limit, sacrificing everything in the process
Toe tag me up zip the bag and check it
We're ready to face the consequences of our actions, no matter how dire they may be
Oh no he's been resurrected
We're not afraid of failure, setbacks, or even death - we'll always come back stronger
Zombie holocaust in seconds
We're unstoppable and unrelenting, and won't rest until we've achieved our goals
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide
We're fully committed and won't back down, no matter what
From what we know, down deep inside
We're confident in our actions and our ability to succeed
Hell if I know, just wanna ride
We're just going with the flow and taking everything as it comes
Until the wheels, fall off and I
We'll keep pushing ourselves until we've achieved our goals - no matter what the cost
Run off the road, know telling why
We may face setbacks and obstacles, but we'll keep pushing forward regardless
Hear them cry
We're not afraid to face adversity and opposition, and we'll always come out on top
Man I just don't wanna die
We're filled with raw energy and passion, and will do anything to avoid failure or death
Just dont wanna why
We're fully committed to the cause, and will do whatever it takes to succeed
Is everything always happening
We're always on the move, and things are always happening around us
In the blink of eye
Our lives are unpredictable and intense, and anything can happen at any moment
This better be the last time me
We're determined to succeed, and won't stop until we've achieved our goals
Ever see you in my life
We're constantly moving forward, and won't look back or dwell on the past
Steadily to the death passing
We're committed to the cause, no matter the cost
Everything that dont seem tight
We're willing to sacrifice everything that doesn't work in our favor

I saw MC Ride at a grocery store in Sacramento yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didnβt want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, βOh, like youβre doing now?β
I was taken aback, and all I could say was βHuh?β but he kept cutting me off and going βhuh? huh? huh?β and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like βSir, you need to pay for those first.β At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually βto prevent any electrical infetterence,β and then turned around and winked at me. I donβt even think thatβs a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
