Roll The Dice - In Dust


My Rating: 3.5/5
   
I have only listened some sample clicks of their 1st album of Roll The Dice under Digitalis label in 2010 and felt they are just ordinary experimental electronic sound artists playing those experimental drone, loops, etc. sound exploration stuff……..a bit too low profile for me……

These two Stockholm-based musicians, Malcolm Pardon & Peder Mannerfelt of Roll The Dice seems going to be more ambitious and mature this time……..moving to a new and more popular music label, Leaf, and releasing new album ‘In Dust’ in 2001 with more clear and expressive approach and also a good cover artwork……..What you see the cover art work is what the vibe of their music want to express……maybe just coincidence, the artwork makes me thinking of the recent protests worldwide against post capitalism greed……in the cover artwork, I interpret human being is just resources and costs for feeding to factory for making even more money for 10% greed people of the world…….little bit like going back to Hilter’s concentration camps situation!!!........Still their electro synth sound creating some cold, despair, isolated but refreshing feeling under some dark industrial vibe……a bit cinematic way of expression…..…reminds me of The Wall of Pink Floyd!!! ……….a good concept album that worth a listen!!!
