The Death Set treiben den Punk und Noise nach vorne, bringen Unkonventionelles und echte Neuerungen. So auch auf ihrem aktuellen zweiten Werk "Michel Poiccard". Das erinnert eher an Bands wie Buzzcocks und Black Flag denn an tumbes Draufgeknppel: Die Gitarren sgen, als gbe es kein Morgen mehr, die Drums knallen wohlig im Hintergrund, und Snger und Gitarrist Johnny Siera bannt sein schneidendes Organ keine Sekunde lang. Dadurch mutiert "Michel Poiccard" zu einer irrwitzigen Abfahrt im Interpretations-Dschungel des neuzeitlichen Punk. Das Trio spielt Noise fr Hellraisers, wirken wie nervse Punker, die schon zu oft Amphetamin-Missbrauch betrieben haben [...]
The Death Set return with the latest single from their album "Michel Poiccard". A perfect slice of pop infused punk with a distinctly classic pukk feel to it, "Can You Seen Straight" is, in the words of lead singer Johnny Siera, "about unrelenting chaos every night. Getting ridiculous and getting in the van and doing it again (and again...). "Sent us kind of insane in the end." Things came to a head at a particular show where the crowd invaded the stage and smashed up the drum kit. Unfortunately the drum kit didn‚t belong to the Death Set but the [...]
“Can You Seen Straight?” is an homage to Paris, Brooklyn, and some guy in a white tiger mask.

The Death Set look like they have a good time... from time to time. It might just be Hollywood magic or regular wizard magic but I for one think their magic is real.

The Death Set are one of those bands that continues to progress with each and every release. Their latest offering, a music video for their new single, Can You Seen Straight? , is sprawling video diary of a band truly living their dream as they globe trot between Brooklyn and Paris, playing shows, partying hard, and making the best mistakes. The Death Set have always been good at documenting their travels , providing their audience with more than just entertainment. Instead, we see a more sentimental account of a band that has struggled through thick and thin, [...]

The video for 'Can You See Straight?' was shot in Paris and Brooklyn.
Check out The Death Set ripping up Paris and Brooklyn on a recent tour and gracing us with the footage and packaging it up neatly alongside their track "Can You Seen Straight". Blood, a ton of sweat and animal masks all feature in the video, not to mention more than a pinch of chaos. It's to be expected with these boys though really if you've ever seen footage of their shows prior to this video. Check out life on the road for a band on top of their game at the moment, or at least at [...]

The Death Set are probably at their highest profile yet right now, mostly due to drummer Jahphet Landis filling in as drummer of TV on the Radio. But the group has had a pretty busy 2011, releasing an album on Ninja Tune ( Michel Poiccard ) and releasing a series of singles, the most recent of which ("Can You See Straight") just got a tour footage music video. In the clip above, we see the group goof off on the streets of Paris and Brooklyn, all while the livewire art-punk of the track crackles underneath. [...]
Maybe the last great hope for what is left of American punk rock music (and sure, they're not really American by birth per se), The Death Set's latest record contains some of the most straightforward independent music you're likely to hear. The trio went out on tour and shot a music video for the track... Read More
