Death Grips "are delighted to announce a second show" at the city centre venue.
Experimental industrial hip-hop group Death Grips have announced a second show at Dublin's Academy on Monday, June 19th.

Formed in California, the group consists of Stefan Burnett (vocals, lyrics), Zach Hill (drums, production, lyrics), and Andy Morin (keyboards, production, lyrics). Their sound, which has garnered critical acclaim, blends categories– drawing from punk rock, electronic and industrial styles.
The group has also accrued a cult following since their arrival on the music scene over a decade ago, gaining notoriety for their aggressive performance style and cryptic interactions with fans.

The group released their first single ‘Full moon (Death Classic)’ in March 2011 before releasing their debut album Exmilitary the following month. Within a year, the group had signed to Epic Records and released two more albums, The Money Store and No Love Deep Web, which was released following a dispute with Epic.
Since then, the band have released five more albums, in 2013’s Government Plans, 2015’s Fashion Week and The Powers That B (two double-albums), 2016’s The Bottomless Pit, and their most recent album, Year of The Snitch, which hit streamers in 2018.
Their most recent project was the 2022 two-track EP, Live from Death Valley. The same year the group posted a series of cryptic videos to their website hinting at a new album.
Tickets go on sale Friday, March 10th at 10am and will be €39.50, including booking fees. The show will be over 18s.
