Unlocked: Bonus Episode 57 - Death Grips as Laurel Canyon 2.0, pt. 2: Psychonauts on the Moon, feat. Dakota

(unlocked from Patreon) (part 2 of 2) Today I'm rejoined by Dakota (@DEEP_RED_BELLS) to finish our conversation about the musical group Death Grips. We continue analyzing Exmilitary. This includes discussing the sample from the songs Culture Shock and 5D, leading us to discuss lightworkers, Blavatsky, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, and the Church Universal and Triumphant. Then we have an extended discussion on MC Ride's tattoos, their symbolism, and the various left-hand path traditions to which they allude. After that, we discuss the band's timeline, examine Epic Records' artists and executives, and the events surrounding their most controversial acts of self-sabotage and magic(k)al rebirth. This includes their time at the Chateau Marmont, fighting with their own label, leaking their own album, the possibility that their extreme online popularity may not be entirely organic, and the group's conception of the role of magic(k) in their careers. To wrap up, Dakota tells some personal tales of debauchery set to Death Grips' music.
