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 Björk, The Powers That B. Disc 1 is titled Niggas on the Moon, and features heavy sampling of Björk'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.
Three Bedrooms in a Good Neighborhood
Death Grips Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm all up in my glory hole S-O, no, no, no, no
Nylons on
Side bitches don't
Your table through my
My body through your
Three bedrooms in a good neighborhood
On fire like a margarita made out of wood
In the future, there's a party from the past, she's a cop
I'll jailbreak ADX with a blank tarot card
Same card pull your hoe card like Zoltar
Two crystal balls dangle from my boneyard
I'm Niagara Falls flowing crowbar
La, la, la, la, I got Folsom bars
Tour flows urinal take a dive bars
La, la, la, la
Go down in the fifth you service town car
Swiftly service me, bitch it's called outlaw
Nylons on veal
Side bitches don't heal
Your table through my head
My body through your bed
I'm all up in my glory hole S-O no, no, no, no
I'm all up in my glory hole S-O no, no, no, no
I'm all up in my glory hole S-O no, no, no, no
I'm all up in my glory hole S-O no, no, no, no
Three bedrooms in a good neighborhood
On fire like a margarita made out of wood
She got solar panels for thirty cents a watt
In the future, there's a party from the past, she's a cop
This private ocean I carve
I'll carve this bitch into high art
No say bitch made state-of-mind art
My murder spree murk out this conk
Albert Fish gaunt sunk out this conk
Strictly ugly fuck for your cunt
Cunts over-easy and more blunts
Thermal strong-arm gravity sink bong
Head games with an only child
I foghorn devils devils jelly
Felt me, unbelt me, bombard your belly
Force-feed me through your telly
Cyborg swelling pregnant can't abort
Nylons on
Side bitches don't
Your table through my
My body through your
Nylons on veal
Side bitches don't heal
Your table through my head
My body through your
I'm all up in my glory hole S-O no, no, no, no
I'm all up in my glory hole S-O no, no, no, no
I'm all up in my glory hole S-O no, no, no, no
I'm all up in my glory hole S-O no, no, no, no
Nylons on
Side bitches don't
Your table through my
My body through your
Nylons on veal
Side bitches don't heal
Your table through my head
My body through your
"Three Bedrooms in a Good Neighborhood" by Death Grips is a complex and cryptic song that explores themes of power, control, domination, and identity. The lyrics are dense with imagery and metaphor, making it difficult to decipher a clear narrative. The chorus "I'm all up in my glory hole S-O, no, no, no, no" appears often throughout the song and can be interpreted as a reference to anonymity, sexual satisfaction, and a sense of control. The use of "no, no, no, no" creates a sense of negation and resistance, perhaps reflecting a desire to reject norms and expectations.
The second verse delves deeper into themes of domination and control. The singer boasts about jailbreaking a maximum-security prison and using a blank tarot card to pull someone's "hoe card." The use of crystal balls and boneyards adds to the sense of mysticism and power. The lyrics suggest that the singer is in control of his reality and can manipulate it to suit his desires. The chorus is repeated again, followed by a verse that includes references to murder, ugly sex, and the use of technology for manipulation.
The final chorus repeats the same imagery, with slight variations. The use of "nylons on veal" is a grotesque image that suggests a fetishistic desire for control and domination. The table through the head and body through the bed imagery can be interpreted as a metaphor for a power dynamic in a relationship. The final line "My body through your" is left unfinished, leaving room for interpretation. Overall, the song seems to be a commentary on power dynamics, anonymity, and the desire for control.

This song makes me want to get an education, a well-paying office position, get a 401k, marry someone nice and start a family, and then buy a modern home with an appropriate amount of bedrooms in a upper middle-class neighborhood.

Typing this from a house that has 3 bedrooms in a good neighborhood. Trust me, it's worth it. (no husband or family though, so I can't advise you on that part).
