Black Dice - Load Blown

http://youtube.com/watch?v=g9WSNMKf_Vw

I'm pretty sure this is now my favourite black dice album.

Kinda in one ear and out the other tho?

How do you mean?

Just seems bland to me. I must admit I'd never heard them before however!

Not what I expected I suppose.

Well they reinvent themselves with every record or whatever. I suppose it is a bit backgroundy, but I always find noise music very relaxing.

But there's hardly any noise! I do quite like it but it seems a bit old fashioned somehow, that looped samples thing seems mid-to-late 80s.

Like what? I'd be into some more stuff like this!

I thought you were coming home?

I got distracted

more opinions

please

nigga plz

?

in one ear and out the other

Sometimes I'm so confused and don't know what anybody is talking about. I thought this was where people could talk about Black Dice new album, but apparently it is not.

y'see?

Really enjoying this so far, the "Manoman" tracks are especially awesome. The whole thing is more or less a compilation though. It's great.

Well they reinvent themselves with every record or whatever.

not really in this case... to me it's pretty close to the feel of Broken Ear Record...

The Manoman 12" is my favorite Black Dice release.

Me too. Though I really dig Creature Comforts.

xp

Its even more pared down. Manoman is like a really stripped back snarly yow though.

anyone ever heard this chimes in the black water thing? and if so what is it like?

So long since I heard Cold Hands I can barely recall what they used to sound like

xp
They are coming around my parts next month, really looking forward to that. Haven't really listened to Load Blown though, are they playing that stuff live now? Probably need to get this anyway

I would love to see them, doubt they'll be in Dublin anytime soon though.

i have to say though, i like bjorn's visual art more than any of the music.

*cough*

What?!

At least say Hisham!

xxxp
Well there's just info on a small a tour in Scandinavia right now so who knows

It would be fun to hear someting off Beaches & Canyons too, could imagine that stuff being pretty fearsome live. A shame!

I was so not into Beaches and Canyons for the longest time, but now I really like it. Creature Comforts is still the best one though. I think.

At least say Hisham!

Seminal NYC based art punk DIY enthusiasts / purists, BLACK DICE have returned with their sixth studio album MR. IMPOSSIBLE to be released April 10th on Ribbon Music. The nine song album combines 15 years of collaboration into one explosive electronic breakout monster mash. Over the course of their career Black Dice have refined a compositional palate that is entirely their own. Inspired by the banged up punk gallery art ethos of Men’s Recovery Project, The Seeds and their own live shows Black Dice have arrived with the creation of Mr. Impossible. A being unto itself. Bridging a divide between the thrashings of punk and trance music, Mr. Impossible takes itself serious, breathes with melody and revels in a let loose , wild out , fuck off good time. Sound nuts? Well, it’s not. This is easy to enjoy fun for all frontier music! Get on it.
