Videos: Wolf Eyes, Black Dice and Growing - All three play tonight at Secret Project Robot

By John Ruscher

Secret Project Robot is definitely the place to be tonight.

Pendu, the organization behind the NY Eye and Ear Festival, has put together an absolutely stellar lineup of three of the most vital groups in the experimental/noise scene, Wolf Eyes, Black Dice and Growing. Jimi Hey and Steve Lowenthal will also be spinning tunes.

Tickets were available in advance at Desert Island (540 Metropolitan Ave., Brooklyn) and Hospital Productions (60 E. 3rd St., Manhattan), but we'd recommend calling ahead, as we imagine that they have probably disappeared fairly quickly.

And we'd also recommend getting to the show very early, as it's definitely going to be packed. SPR is a fairly small space, and these three bands are fairly big acts, especially in Brooklyn.

We also imagine, based on the current temperatures, that it'll be a pretty sweaty night, so be prepared.

Below you can check out videos of Wolf Eyes playing in Prague, Black Dice playing at Above The Auto Parts Store, and a funny interview with Growing.
