Get ready, Australia! Legendary Canadian duo Death From Above 1979 is set to electrify stages once again in April 2025:
This will be part of their global tour celebrating the 20th anniversary of their iconic debut LP, You’re a Woman, I’m a Machine.
Since its release in 2004, this genre-defying album has not only become a cult classic but continues to inspire new generations of fans and artists alike with its groundbreaking sound.
Known for their raw, stripped-back approach, Death From Above 1979 embodies a DIY ethos that’s been hailed by Rolling Stone as “noisy hardcore, gritty synths, and earnest screams.” Their relentless beats, searing guitars, and explosive energy will have you dancing from the first note.
You’re a Woman, I’m a Machine is packed with edge-of-your-seat anthems like “Romantic Rights,” “Blood On Our Hands,” “Black History Month,” and “Little Girls”—though let’s be real, every track is a banger. Drowned In Sound's perfect 10/10 review once said:
“It’s not just music you’re hearing—sweat, blood, spunk, and beer are all audible, splattering these 11 tracks like a Pollock…. Just two dudes making a right ol’ racket, done with such spirit and delivered with purity—magnificently filthy.”
To celebrate this monumental anniversary, the duo is hitting the road for a massive world tour, including four Australian shows next April. They’re also diving into a year-long recording project to reimagine and pay homage to their groundbreaking debut.
This tour marks Death From Above 1979’s first visit to Australia in nearly 15 years! Their last appearances were in 2005 and again in 2011 for Parklife—so you can bet their return is well overdue!
After two decades of relentless energy, the band has solidified their status as a powerhouse in the music scene.
Don’t miss your chance to witness the explosive performance of Death From Above 1979 live on their 20th Anniversary tour—an unforgettable tribute to an album that still pulses with the same intensity as it did in 2004.
