In August 2004 the Dutch guys of Ricocher recorded their third album called "Chains" at the Spacelab Studio in Germany (the studio of the German progrockers Everon).
The album differs from the previous two: not only because of the deeper and fuller sound of guitars and voices but also because it's one continuing story in seven songs. The story is about being chained: being misunderstood by friends and relatives and about searching your own best way to act. The main character feels he's being chained because his surrounding demands a certain living pattern, but that's not the way he really is. He discovers that the only way to get out of this vicious circle is by following his own path. He will loose some friends, but the people who stay with him can be called true friends.
