Post Description

Studio Album, released in 1992, Sweden.

Instrumentaal album wat in feite uit 1977 stamt maar pas in 1992 werd uitgebracht.

DICE was a Scandinavian band, gaining an immediate great reputation mainly among musicians. Their music is frequently compared to the major acts in the field of art-rock; GENTLE GIANT, YES, ELP, GENESIS etc. Though they have not existed as a band since the start of the '80's, they still have a quite large number of devoted fans. "Four Riders of the Apocalypse" is definitely worthwhile if you like bands like AMENOPHIS or MIRTHRANDIR. The music follows a theme of sorts, with occasional reprises and repeated rhythms. 

An incredible masterpiece from this band. Along Kaipa, they should had influenced all the swedish prog rock that appeared in the 80's and 90's. Almost instrumental, a stunning complexity and mix of virtuosity, with the delicious mellotron and excellent guitar and keyboards parts. Awesome, don't miss this one
