Romantic Rights EP, released on 679 Artists in April 2004, is an early calling card from Death From Above 1979, the Toronto duo of bassist Jesse F. Keeler and drummer-singer Sebastien Grainger. Just two players, and they make a racket like a demolition crew: fuzzed-out, overdriven bass doing the work of a whole guitar army, Grainger pounding and yelping on top.
The title track is the one that stuck, a dance-floor battering ram that went on to become the first single from their debut album, You're a Woman, I'm a Machine. It later became the opening music for the MTV show Human Giant and turned up in the SSX On Tour and NBA 2K15 games, and when the band played it on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Max Weinberg took over Grainger's drum kit halfway through.
