LOAD BLOWN
BLACK DICE
- Ref. XB463F
- PAW TRACKS, 2007.
"Nearly every cut here gets right to the point, jumping into simple rhythmic and sonic ideas with little delay, then grinding away devoutly at those basic elements, adding accents and building momentum along the way. There are few stretches of the kind of wandering exposition heard on other Black Dice records, which usually cropped up when the band pushed a track past the 10-minute mark. Those moments often produced inspired music, and surely the band hasn't abandoned them. But it's fun to hear Black Dice go straight for the jugular throughout the aptly-titled Load Blown, and hit the mark every time. In that sense, the album sounds like an expansion of band member Eric Copeland's recent solo effort for Paw Tracks, Hermaphrodite. That record built sunny loops from bouncing rhythms and semi-melodies, and so does Load Blown, with a wider, more open sonic palette. "Kokomo" uses repeated yelps and street-shaking bass bombs to lead a round of sonic jumping jacks, while "Toka Toka" weaves chirping squiggles into dancing circles, akin to the cartoon-ish audio experiments of Raymond Scott. ... www.pitchforkmedia.com
