Get the death from above mug.
Generally any sort of weapon, be it bombs, live ammo or hell anything that rains down upon the earth and causes mass death and devastation. Also known as Raining Death.

1. During the Vietnam War, the ground troops were usually attacked from entrenched enemies from all sides, so the called in artillery and bombers to drop some death from above on the dinks. And during the battle of Hamburger Hill, instead of bombing the thing, they decided to send human soldiers up the hill. In 10 days the divisions that went up that hill suffered over 70% casualties.

Get the Death From Above mug.
A battle cry used by the Dominic's cat Spark in the webcomic Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire. Denotes pretty much exactly what it sounds like.
Helixa- "Now watch, Oracle, as your precious golem dies a slow, painful death FROM ABOVE!" (last two words yelled by Spark)

Get the death from above 1979 mug.
1; noun - the best band that ever existed period. it kicked it hard. Jesse Frederick Keeler was the bassist, Sebastien Grainger was the drummer.

2; verb - to do something beyond human understanding. only ever achieved by the aforementioned band mates.
"oh my god, he just pulled a death from above 1979!" in reality, the previous sentence is impossible, unless "he" is either Jesse Frederick Keeler or Sebastien Grainger.
