Black Dice

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Hailed as sonic groundbreakers or derided as alienating and pretentious, Brooklyn's Black Dice push the limits of hardcore and noise rock. Taking their cues from Melt Banana, Merzbow, and Harry Pussy, Black Dice fixate on a few notes per "song" and focus on producing a sound that's as abrasive and distorted as possible.

Brooklyn's own BLACK DICE return to Troubleman with their second cd. Since we last heard from them, they toured the USA (again), and released a 7'. They have also been playing around NYC monthly, developing their sound and dabbling in improvisation. This record finds them experimenting with sounds, and mixing them with their patented brand of violent hardcore. The result is an odd mixture of the experimental HARRY PUSSY, noise master MERZBOW, and violent hardcore pioneers VOID. They also added more amps to    [ read more ]
