"Black Square covers a fair amount of territory over the course of 35 minutes. For better or worse, DD/MM/YYYY don't stay in one place for long, and they certainly don't keep still. As the bookends of this album ably display- ""Bronzage"" at the start, ""Digital Haircuit"" at the end- DD/MM/YYYY can rein in their stylistic happy feet long enough to bang out infectious and spry post-punky tunes. Most of the album features a fair number of similar songs that effectively encompass DD/MM/YYYY's disparate musical interests without seeming fussy or overwrought. Unfortunately, they try to mimic their stop-start rhythmic agility with the album's various stylistic shifts. It's not so much that the changes of pace are unwelcome, but it's the way these changes are implemented that causes problems." Bronzage, No Life, They, Infinity Skull Cube, My Glasses, Birdtown, Sirius B, Lismer, Real Eyes, $50000 Guitar Head, I'm Still in the Walls, Digital Haircut, Van Tan
