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 DFA Records. 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.
