0 3rd Dice : Dice Mice


3rd Dice looked better and younger wayy back in 1995 with Ajit, Ohgee & Aace played with JOSE. Yeah, that was the phase of teenage life when flying & jumping with guitars seemed owh so cool. Ajit wrote a few songs for JOSE but it didn't actually made the list; only a few was good enough for his older brother; Oneuno. JOSE was on and off a few years later, and Ajit took the chance of forming 3rd Dice with Ohgee & Aace. Based at TJStudio in Tuaran, they started to jamm and composed a few songs together (around 2003). Practice makes perfect they say; hahaha, to them; more practices makes you broke. One of their earliest attempt was a garage recording of New Hope and a few songs from JOSE. 3rd Dice started to capture everyone's attention when they dominated the TJStudio, and yes (you guessed it) ; they got broke, hahaha. They got extra fire power with Pye as an addition to 3rd Dice broke-n dynasty but still, the formula was not right somewhere. So they started recording their songs, released their first full demo entitled 'Gamblers' Series' and played many shows (around 2003 to end of 2004). After the release of their second full demo entitled 'Keep Yourself Together' in 2005, they forgot how broke they were because they were loving the fact that many have supported them in their music and at shows; the feeling beats a million dollars (at least they think so). The band started to evolved musically & technically; reaching new heights as plans to produce a self-recorded EP was well on the way. In early 2009, 3rd Dice released their first (hope not the last) EP entitled 'Why I Keep Writing'. The EP was a personal success for the band; it was a full independent release (written, recorded, produced, distributed) by the band. In the same year, they got Luther to replace Aace on drums which marks a shift in the 3rd Dice sound. So here is 3rd Dice facebook page. They're still here, still broke, still loving the feeling of appreciation. Please remind them anytime; How old is 3rd Dice now? They are beginning to lose count; over errr 5 years? Anyway, they would like to thank all friends and fans for the support through the years. Superb shoutouts to bands that they had the pleasure to play along side with. Enjoy the songs & lets get old together.
