“Gang Gang Dance started as free-form noiseniks; over the years, they’ve managed to mellow out without moving to the center– evolving into purveyors of pan-cultural body-music, marrying club beats with lyrics about communing with the dead.

Like Arthur Russell before them, they give equal floorspace to the spiritual and the sensual. By those loopy standards, Eye Contact– the group’s latest album– is Gang Gang Dance’s finest, weirdest, and most uplifting statement yet…this is not a pop record, per se, but the stuff of pop records collected, melted down, and then dribbled Jackson Pollock-style onto a canvas.” – Pitchfork, Best New Music
