Hear ‘One + One’ in advance.
Seldom seen Canadian rock duo Death From Above 1979 have announced the release of a new album. Ushering in the announcement of their first full-length project in three years, this week the band share the project’s first preview, a typically guttural rhythmic assault that thrives upon its considered minimalism.
Elaborating on the creation of ‘One + One’, drummer and vocalist Sebastien Grainger explains in a statement
“‘One + One’ is a love song. It’s the karmic sequel to ‘Romantic Rights’. My wife, Eva, became pregnant not long after we started working on the song, and after hearing an early version she said, ‘I wish this song was dancier’ so I went back into the studio and re-worked the drums. As the record was taking shape, every time I would come home from the studio, the baby would start dancing in Eva’s belly. Even before I walked in the room, the party would start. One plus one is three—that’s magic!”

Is 4 Lovers releases on March 26th via Everything Eleven.
