For this episode, I'm joined by Christopher Vogt to discuss the experimental hip hop group Death Grips and how they might relate to the philosophical/political views described as Accelerationism. The first segment discusses the early career of Death Grips and focuses on the notion of the post-human, using "Full Moon (Death Classic)" as the main example. The second segment dives into accelerationism and dissects the music and video for "Guillotine." The final segment looks at the album No Love Deep Web and the notion of a post-internet art while also offering a materialist reading of "Get Got" from The Money Store.
