On their last tour before splitting up (wasn't known at the time), we caught them for like the 8th time in Montreal. We were chilling with Jesse and Misty out back (not sure if they were married yet, but she was running the merch table). We told them how badly we had tried to get tickets for the next day in Ottawa, which was the last one of the tour..Yada Yada they hooked us up with guest list for 3. We ended up being only two that drove down. Made some random kid's night at the door too, who also couldn't get tickets so we gave him our third spot. Theses vintage shows, in dingy venues were the best shows of my early 20s and I'll never forget them! In fact, the first time I saw DFA was with Metric and Billy Talent in 2005. I didn't even really know DFA yet, we were going for Billy Talent. My friends had tickets, but not me. I tagged along anyway, even if the venue was an hour+ away in the country (Bourbon North). I hung around the entrance, as we got there super early. Ran into Jesse in the small lobby. That was the first time he hooked a brother up! After that show, I was sold. They blew my mind for the first time. I had never seen bass being playing like that, like a lead guitar. Caught him in the crowd later and thanked him for marking a point in my life in such a kick ass way. At some point in between those shows, I 'borrowed' my parent's van and went to Kingston to see them. There was crowdsurfing, at The Grad Club, which is basically an old house converted to a campus pub and they were set up in the living room. That show and the rest of the night after was wiilllld. Jesse also randomly came to our table in the bar area and just helped himself to some of our wings 😆😂
I love these guys. Saw them live in Minneapolis in 2005 at the 400 bar. I think Black Rebel Motorcycle Club opened for them. Great times. Been a fan ever since then.
Melon interviewing one of my favorite band!! I first heard of them on the FIFA Soundtrack and fell in love with the rest of the albums they made. Thanks Ant-Knee
Damn usually I don’t stick around for a full interview but I feel like I could have listened to these guys talk for a few more hours. What lovely people
New album is layered. Didnt click at first but after a few listens, it holds it's own. Absolute banger of a record. Love the flow and sequence. In and out in 30 minutes
They made up many stories about their band's name origin. One of them is that they found an aviator jacket at a military surplus store with the phrase "Death From Above." They liked it and stuck with it. After having a legal dispute, they added 1979 to Death From Above. I can't remember if I've read about the aviator jacket story or watched an interview. I can't recall well.
Yeah, they basically just randomly tacked on one of their birth year's without much thought to further significance. I think it's Jesse's. Seb is '77? Not lazy enough to reply, but too lazy to Google.
@@notDonaldFagen, the 1979 is from Seb. I feel you. I am also lazy. I really don't wanna search for that source that mentions the story behind the aviator jacket with the logo "Death From Above." One day I'm gonna document everything about the punk and rock duo just for the kicks. The only issue is that I'm lazy.

It’s crazy that Anthony went back to 1979 to interview these guys

Went back? Dude this interview is promoting their new album "Is 4 Lovers"
How else was melon going to speak to his dad after that awful accident...

Jesse and Sebastian's personalities completement each other so good, no wonder they make amazing music.
It was reall cool of you to give them 1979 copies of Total Xanarchy
Total xanarchy is so fire
@@htesreyzaw6114 is that a joke?
Yuck.
@@joerandl9252 yes
Buying the pink album just because of the cover is still the best random record buy I ever made 🤘
I saw these guys open up for deftones back in 2015, didn't know who they were. Sweet that they're still doing music
@Ivory_ Lagiacrus_YT I was there, it was less of a “performance” and more like just Anthony listing Deftones songs and screaming “NOT GOOD”
saw them on this same tour! fuckin ruled
I can only Dream about a show with both Deftones and DFA Holy shit!

Catchy danceable noise rock is coming back in a big way post-pandemic
I remember going to MySpace to check out what's going on with the band and only seeing a giveaway for a GameCube.
Missed a golden opportunity for a pullout reference when sebastien talked about having a baby
Lmaoo
Love how they recognized their logo as being an inportant part of their cult mythos.

I love this content so much. You're so fast! 😍
Great interview

yo i cant wait for this
Jesse is talking about Richlite i think, when talking about the fretboardmaterial on his custom Rickenbackers
Love this band! Cool stuff!
Is the band name inspired by Apocalypse Now? I saw a plane that had "death from above" on it in that movie which was released in 1979.
Possibly. I think I heard one of the guys say they were also born in 79
@@IveGotToast It was originally just death from above but they had to add the 1979 because of legal reasons

Holy shiet it was great, I hope melon liked it too. 8/10, calling it now. I’ll edit to see how he reviewed once he does.
Edit: 6/10. God damnit melon

Based interview
I "Freeze"d what I was doing and started watching this video. :^)
Constantly saying “can you remember a time when the city was a great place for architects and dilettantes?” Doesnt count as an interview anthony.

Maybe they need to remember that their “dead horse” is what got every single person hooked.
Hiii jesse 🤩🤩
did I step into a time portal to 2004?

If the label isn't asking how the recording of an album is doing it can mean one of two things. One is really good, and the other not so much.
Melhor albúm da udr ae
fantano me enganou...
this just looks like Anthony slinging drugs with two middle aged men
Sebastian looks just like Anthony. Only differences are the eyebrows and the hat.
Deathtony fromtano
sebastian looks like a fusion of anthony and hasan piker
Antonio el Fantas
Anthony’s twin.
formica?
so are the keeping the 1979 in the name or dropping it? lmao
they have to have it for copyright reasons, they received a cease and desist early in the band's life by another business under a similar name
I feel like the melon talks over his guests sometimes, is kinda not cool tbh.

Why does the one look like a discount melon
Blood Brothers rule and deserve a review.
More like 1799
Fantano travelled to 1979 to tell us to order an album that hasn’t been released yet.
Yooo
