Infidels Records artists UniversalDice is a most unique band; just beneath the surface of their accessible, melodic and beautifully played and arranged modern/classic rock sound lay an ambitious and rich lyrical content that challenges rock music orthodoxy. There are few bands can take you to another place musically while they force you to re-think what was once taken for granted. This is cliche free music.

The songs, written and produced by Gerry Dantone, are always relevant and usually intensely emotional and often unique in the rock music arena. At the same time their memorable melodies recall the qualities admired in the the Beatles, Green Day, Pink Floyd and the Killers even though their songs never sound like any of these classic band's tunes in particular. These are original tunes with original ideas.

Songwriter, singer, multi-instrumentalist Gerry Dantone has perfected a writing style that is first and foremost humanistic, but also coherent, provocative and multi-layered. In addition, the band's primary themes are as big as they get; life and death and meaning and purpose. No other band is as prepared to tackle these subjects as UniversalDice.

Gerry Dantone is the lead vocalist, songwriter, guitarist, programmer, and recording, mixing and mastering engineer for the band. Longtime bandmates Bob Barcus on guitar and Eddie Canova on bass are among Long Island's finest session players and are given a chance to stretch. Long Island musical giants Walt Sargent and Vincent Crici add their keyboard support to the band's latest tunes.

The music of UniversalDice would fit comfortably on formats that feature the Beatles, the Who, Pink Floyd, Springsteen, Green Day, the Killers, Imagine Dragons, Coldplay, Artic Monkeys, Taylor Swift, Paul Simon, Fleetwood Mac, XTC, Dire Straits, Elton John, Procol Harum, Billie Eilish, Elvis Costello, etc., all artists with great songs!
