*rating* 7*sample lyrics* blaahh, blaah, blippy blippy doo (zappida zappida!)If you haven't noticed lately, there's a posse of arty hooligans walking our halls... an angular, Cubist version of the Jets. Or maybe the Sharks. Wait, which ones made music that sounds like an accordian being flayed by a casio? No matter. Snapping irregular beats, every once and a while violently pushing a nerd ...

Vox Populi Music Gallery in Phillie is going away for a while. I never went to a show there. But that doesn't mean that I'm not going to celebrate the end of live music there by going to see Black Dice play. Not as exciting as a typical Friday night for me, but it takes all kinds.

The new album Repo by the Black Dice is a return of the DJ influenced dance and break beats inspired electronica, laced with a steady helping of modern experimental rock. Admittedly they have a sound not treaded lightly, as their MetaCritic score has me at odds here with the populace, but I am no stranger to having tastes against the grain.

C.L. Chafin says in tomorrow's review of Black Dice's Repo that the album "melds overmodulated drumbeats, guitars, otherworldly chattering, distorted saxophone, and a million other bleeps and...

I really have no idea how to describe Black Dice, or this album to be honest. The Brooklyn based trio are signed to Animal Collective’s Paw Tracks record label, and on paper, fit the same “experimental” label as the men that head their label. But somewhere along the road, that label got overshadowed by something [...]

YES. REPO has been out for one week now and here’s the video for “Glazin,” easily Black Dice’s most accessible tune and a great intro for new fans.
