STICE IN ATTENDANCE

FRIDAY, MARCH 4 – 7:30PM
(One night only!)

One cold midnight in 2019, breakcore duo Stice debuted their first batch of demented video-poems. A mysterious pet project by two fresh-faced net-trawlers, Spectacle expected a meager showing, but much to the theater’s surprise, the house was packed by 11:45 and Ubers were still rolling up well past 1 AM for standing-room only tickets. Three-tenths of a decade later, Stice is back with glossed-up credentials—an honest-to-god label, three-and-a-half tours under their belt, and even a review in the “The Quietus”—but they’re still serving the same putrefied, ADHD-addled, banned-on-your-school’s-computer sludge. Their newest video-album effort, a 45-minute, built-in laptop camera remake of Fellini’s Satyricon, is among the darkest, rancidest, most nutso grab-bag of tunes that the duo has thus far cooked up.
