did you get the black dice / animal collective split lp??

Did you love the Stevie Wonder quote in the middle of big big beat?
Did you dig on their new weirdo boogie jamboree style?

The next lp will be to Sung Tongs as American Beauty is to Workingman's Dead.

They played the song that is on the split. It sounds like neubauten. Well, at least one neubauten song I heard a long time ago. it really sounds like the avey side of the david grubbs split, i guess.

at the Other Music in-store, they covered "On A Plain," which then segued into "Winters Love." lovely.

I really wanted to go to that show. I hope someone finds a recording.

there was a dude recording the in-store, and I thought I also saw someone videotaping it? I like how they played She's Gonna Have A Baby but not Rabbit. which one was Avey Tare and which was Panda Bear? I thought I read they were a duo -- was the third guy just filling out?

Avey Tare was wearng a hat on the rigt, Panda was on the left. conrad deakin was in the middle. The geologist was the guy in the crowd wearing a visor. there's four of them, just all four of them don't always play. but the are all playing on this tour.

Enjoyed the show, but thought Black Dice trumped them. I was talking to my friend about whether or not they could cross over into the hippie/jam band scene. He thought absolutely not; I think it's possible.

Damn, that merch table was mobbed, so I just gave up and left. Any other rare goodies besides the split LP?

both shows were eye-gougingly fantastical. it was quite a dreamy weekend. I truly hope recordings of the shows surface, especially the other music show. it really seemed at the bowery show that people were more responsive to AC than BD...for good reason. i haven't seen them so animated, which says quite a bit. they did a bit more sung tongs material at the bowery show, leaf house and holiday, but both were rather dark and claustrophobic renditions...very interesting.

picked up the panda bear record too, definitely still haven't totally absorbed it, but it's very reminiscent of the campfire songs record. both deal extensively with death, so it's a very natural connection to make. sounds prettier though, more mature in some ways.

magic city--do you know about any plans for their next record?

― naturemorte, Tuesday, 17 August 2004 15:59 (twenty-one years ago)

No, I don't. It won't be for a while, which is ok I guess since sung tongs just came out. They're doing this little tour and another one in November. I don't know how it will work with everyone living all over the place.

I like how Black Dice is looking more and more like some sort of classical music group. The three of them with their little work stations evenly spread out on the stage. But the writhe around sometimes more than composers would.

― Magic City (ano ano), Tuesday, 17 August 2004 16:30 (twenty-one years ago)

i would like to see a black dice/oneida split LP, or maybe have oneida cover creature comforts or B&C and black dice cover each one teach one on a double cd. EOTO does fit on a single cd pretty easy, so itd work. maybe theyre not friends - they do seem to be of separate brooklyn factions... nonetheless.

black dice and oneida hang out at the same bar.

one member of oneida hangs out on I Love Baseball (when he's not on tour).

― peter smith (plsmith), Tuesday, 17 August 2004 16:44 (twenty-one years ago)

err... no he didn't! he was totally fine with it. i don't even know who you are.

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 17 August 2004 16:45 (twenty-one years ago)

o. so they're becoming more like kraftwerk.

This review bugs me.

I really like Oneida, gygax says they're "safe".

I thought that he might appreciate the sentiments in a song like "Doin Business In Japan" which is my favourite Oneida song.
