Upset The Rhythm present two very different iterations of electronic noise music here. Black Dice’s most recent works are chittering, systematic progressions, like pressing your ear to the grass if the earth was turned up to one thousand and eleven. At other times their sets have been more indulgent, blasting out crashing waves of ear-splitting distortion. Growing, on the other hand, alternate between shimmering post-rock, tectonic drones and techno minimalism on record; live, they often lean towards the latter. In short, neither band’s set will be predictable, apart from that aurally sensitive audience members should definitely take along their earplugs.
