Many thanks to Göran for the rip and share of this rarity, issued in only 30 homemade copies!.
Epic Irae was:
Göran Jacobson (born on August 3rd 1972) - Vocals
Thomas Svedlund (born on August 16th 1972) - Guitars
Patrick Backlund (born on September 29th 1972) - Bass
Mikael Svedlund (born on March 21st 1974) - Drums
Info: The demo was recorded and mixed by Marcus Winberg and Epic Irae on a four track porta studio during the Christmas holidays in 1989-90. Ballet of Desolation represents the first properly recorded material by Epic Irae excluding a never released version of "An Angel's Cry" which had been recorded earlier in the autumn of 1989 (which was both heavier and superior to the one included on the demo). Epic Irae later changed their name to Quicksand Dream and put out a self-released album in 2000 limited to only 30 copies. It was reissued in 2010 by Planet Metal on CD and High Roller Records on vinyl, limited to 500 copies.
