"If indie pop is a Power Ranger, then Death By Sexy is Chuck Norris" - Pop DrivelDex Fontaine and Jason Griffenhagen were lonely rockers wandering the streets of Washington, DC in early 2005. They had just started a new rock’n’roll band with a good, raw, high energy sound. But what to name it? At a loss, they ran into Jesse Hughes from the Eagles of Death Metal at a pinball machine in the DC rock institution the Black Cat. Between quarters, Jesse came to the rescue and suggested the name “Death By Sexy”. They took it and ran with it.
Since then, DXS has been slaying audiences with their brand of relentless, righteous rock music. After adding the bass player with the angelic harmonies: Christian Baldo and releasing their 1st full-length album, Curse The Curse, getting airplay on DC101 in DC, 102.1 The X in Richmond, and various college stations, internet radio across the nation, they seem poised for bigger things. Or at least garnering enough good will to get a free 12 pack of Pabst at their shows. God bless 'em, and god bless rock'n'roll.
