Black Dice Announce First New Album in 9 Years, Plot North American Tour

BY Allie GregoryPublished Jun 30, 2021

Experimental noise group Black Dice have returned with plans for their first new record in nearly a decade. The album, titled Mod Prog Sic, will arrive on September 27 through FourFour Records.

Today, they've shared their first new single from the effort, "White Sugar," as well as its accompanying Google Dream-like music video by Aaron Anderson. Watch that below.

In addition to their announcement, Black Dice have also mapped out a North American tour this fall in support of the record. After a run of dates in California in October, they'll make their way to Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal before wrapping up in Brooklyn mid-November.

The group began hinting at the possibility of new music earlier this month with a series of cryptic social posts containing the album's title. Their latest will mark their follow-up to 2012's Mr. Impossible. Back in 2016 they re-emerged with "Big Deal" and "Last Laugh."
