Studio Screenshot Waves Fans Into a Frenzy
A screenshot of an Instagram post circulated on r/riotfest this week showing a vocal booth and a short caption that appears to reference “the writing and recording of our next album.” The image includes a line saying, “We’re looking forward to the new Death Grips record,” signed “-Stefan and Zach,” which kicked off a flurry of fan speculation across the thread.
On the subreddit, fans greeted the screenshot with excitement and the usual mix of skepticism and optimism. Several users read the post as a tease that the experimental trio could be planning new material — and others noted the band’s long history of cryptic posts and surprise moves, which has made every social post feel like a potential announcement.
For festival-goers and Riot Fest watchers, the big question now is whether studio activity will translate into live appearances next summer. Threads on community forums quickly turned toward lineup wishlists and speculation about where the band might show up if a release is imminent.
We’ll be watching official channels and artist accounts for confirmation. If Death Grips does have new music on the way, it would be one of the more hyped festival talking points of the season — and one to follow closely on the Festival Wire.
