CD Reviews

.... and they just get noisier ...

"Black Dice has seemed to stray away from more "song" oriented material and gone toward more noise. Only six of the twenty-two minutes on this album could be described as songs, although, you be hard pressed to find any structure, melody, etc... The first track is a soft feedback hum with odd background noises, played over an out of tune broken down music box. The last track is twelve or so minutes of harsh guitar feedback with cymbals. The middle "songs" are the only tracks were all members contribute. I think it's interesting though..."
There is only one exit, and it's not in this reality

"First of all let me say if you enjoy consciousness expansion through the help of mind altering drugs and you like any band falling under the noise/noisecore/postrock/neoprog/experimental/ categories, particularly trippy bands with a heavy slant, you should absolutely immerse yourself in this aural nightmare of feedback, hypnotic bass lines, perverse tortured screams and seemingly arhythymic percussive dissonance. I warn you, this is not friendly listening. This is meant to screw you up. Sober listeners with little experience in these aforementioned genres will find this release a bitter pill to swallow. I notice, whether coincidence or not, a striking similarity to EYEHATEGOD on this EP. So toke up, trip out, and buy all of this band's releases. They are fantastic."
Purely Transitional, but still compulsory listening

"Each of these four tracks varies greatly... not nearly as disiplined as the follow-up to it, Beaches and Canyons. Buy that first, then check this out.Worth buying for the 1st track alone: 4 min of interesting guitar noodling that sounds like a broken music box. Sounds like it's being played on the strings between the guitar nut and the tuning knobs. Nothing else like it.The Second and Third tracks are interesting, sort of a bridge between the 80s hardcore sound of their early days and their modern, improvised "new-age noise" sound of present.Check this out."
