Blackbird Presents…
Black Dice is a noise rock/experimental band based in Brooklyn, New
York, USA. They formed in Spring 1997 at the Rhode Island School of
Design and are currently signed to Paw Tracks. The group began as a
harsh, noisy thrash outift, with a sound far different from the more
psychedelic leanings of the last few albums. The release of Broken
Ear Record in 2005 and Manoman in 2006 saw the band innovating once
again, incorporating elements of Afrobeat and breakbeat into their
releases.
