Band Name Origins:

• The Death From Above part is taken from an old paratroopers logo from WWII seen in an army surplus store by Jesse F. Keeler (bass/synth). The 1979 was tagged on for legal reasons as a result of a dispute between DFA records and represents Sebastian Graigner's (percussion/vocals) birth year, or as he puts it "the last cool year of the last cool decade".

Why the Name is Stupid:

• Yes this is real! First off, above what? Plus, if death really came from "above," then wouldn't the person notice it? Second off, they weren't formed in 1979. Not even close! They formed in 2001, for pete's sake! Submitted by: nosckaJ
