DEATH FROM ABOVE 1979 
Announce Explosive 2025 Australian Tour Celebrating 20 Years of Youre a Woman, Im a Machine

Legendary Canadian duo Death From Above 1979 are bringing their electrifying sound to Australia in April, 2025 as part of their global tour celebrating the 20th anniversary of their debut LP, Youre a Woman, Im a Machine. 

Released in 2004, the genre defying album has become a cult classic while still remaining influential two decades on as new fans and artists discover its boundary pushing sonics.

Known for their raw and stripped back sound, Death From Above 1979 has been described as everything from noise punk to dance punk, embodying a DIY ethos that Rolling Stone described as noisy hardcore, gritty synths, and earnest screams. The duos relentless beats, searing guitars, and a ferocious energy practically summon you to the dance floor.

Youre a Woman, Im a Machine contained edge of your seat classics including, Romantic Rights, Blood On Our Hands, Black History Month and Little Girls, but lets face it, every track is killer. A perfect, 10 out of 10 review from back in the day via Drowned In Sound, states "Its not just music youre hearing - sweat, blood, spunk and beer are all audible, splattering these 11 tracks like a Pollock.... Its so simple, just two dudes making a right ol racket, done with such spirit and delivered with such a purity - magnificently filthy Enough said!

 

To celebrate Youre a Woman, Im a Machines 20th Anniversary, the band have undertaken a massive world tour, which includes four shows in Australia next April. 

All the while embarking on a year long recording project to reimagine and honour their iconic, flagship debut.

 

The 2025 tour marks the first time the band have visited Australia in almost a decade and a half! First coming in 2005 and then again in 2011 for Parklife - to say their return is long overdue is a massive understatement!

After two decades of absolute electricity, the band has earned their place as a force to be reckoned with. 

Dont miss your chance to experience the explosive energy and sheer power of Death From Above 1979 live on their 20th Anniversary tour.

An unforgettable salute to a record that still pulses with the same intensity as it did when it first detonated in 2004.
