Death Grips is one of the more critically controversial bands of the last two decades. While albums like The Money Store and No Love Deep Web are heralded as modern-day classics, detractors think of the group as nothing more than a man screaming over the sounds of a dying washing machine.
No matter what you think of the band, though, one thing’s for certain: Their fans can be a bit much. Case in point, the dude at the Philly show who pissed in the pit.
This TikToker summarizes it well, but in case you hate watching TikTok (I get it), there was a guy at a Death Grips show in Philadelphia who peed in the pit. Others at the show said he was also yelling racial slurs in line. Overall, sounds like someone I would not want to hang out with.
The r/DeathGrips subreddit was incensed. What kicked off their discussion was a user sharing a picture of the wet floor, leading to others detailing their own experiences at the show. “There is a fucking pool of piss and the show hasn’t even started yet,” wrote OP, linking to a picture of the piss pool. “yeah saw him in line before the show started. he and his friends were dumb obnoxious and drinking water bottles of liquor like children,” added another. “That show was a damn bio hazard. Someone threw up next to my friend and another guy who definitely threw up collapsed on top of me on his way out,” offered a third.
The Philly Pisser himself then made an appearance on the subreddit before being promptly chased away. If you want to see the selfie he posted, go for it.
Of course, as all of this piss news was Death Grips-related, Anthony Fantano made a video joking about it.
But the Philly Pisser may not be alone in his debauchery. Across several posts, a few users discussed an alleged “toe sucker” who’s been going to shows across the East Coast, too. “Can’t wait for the infamous toe sucker to crawl through it tonight,” stated a commenter in regards to the piss pool. In another thread, a second user echoed the fact that there is indeed a toe sucker going to Death Grips shows. “Yes, there is someone going to several DG concerts, scouting for people with open toed shoes, and sucking on them while crawling on the floor. This is not a joke,” the user wrote.
If this is what it means to stay noided, I want no part in it.
