It wasn’t enough that Drag City rescued the scant recorded output of 1970’s Detroit’s African-American proto-punks Death; it wasn’t enough that the tunes turned out to be flat-out awesome; it wasn’t enough that For The Whole World To See has proven to be so popular that Drag City has had to repress the vinyl at least 4 times since the album’s release in Feburary. Nope, it wasn’t enough… so just to push the amazing story of Death’s return just one level higher, the band has booked shows for September. Only 2 dates so far, one on 9/25 at the Magic Stick in Detroit, and one on 9/26 at the Empty Bottle in Chicago– but this is a pretty rare opportunity. If you get the chance to go, go.
