Death Grips is an American experimental hip hop group formed in 2010 in Sacramento, California. The group consists of producers Zach Hill (drums) and Andy Morin (keyboards), and vocalist Stefan Burnett, also known as MC Ride. Though he is not the group's frontman, Hill has been credited with being the driving creative force behind the project. Drawing from punk rock, electronic, noise, and industrial styles, the band's innovative and often difficult-to-categorize sound has earned critical acclaim and a cult following, while their aggressive performance style and cryptic interactions with their fans and the media have gained widespread notoriety.

Is the noise rap game ready for RPatz?. Recently our interest level in Twilight 'hunk' Robert Pattinson has gone from zero (maybe negative one) to something at least numbering in positive digits. Here's why (stick around to the end):  He’s Dating FKA Twigs Unexpectedly, he’s dating (possibly marrying) ultimate future R & Babe FKA Twigs.  Which is highly convenient for rising singer FKA Twigs, whose now getting a fair bit of exposure for her music from Pattinson’s star power. But anyway, respect to Pattinson for this one, and for buying her flowers bigger than her whole body: He’s Acting in Challenging Films David Cronenberg was off his game a bit with recent film Cosmopolis but the fact that Pattinson acted in a Cronenberg film, based on a complex post-modern novel by author Don DeLillo, is cred-worthy – it’s good to see Pattinson shooting for projects like this, as well as Australian film The Rover (dir. Animal Kingdom’s David Michod), and Anton Corbijn's next flick, James Dean bio
