Dinosaurus Stereophonicus is the eighth album by the Finnish rock group CMX, released in 2000. It was recorded after the band had decided to stop touring and become a full-time studio band. The decision only lasted until 2002.[1]
The two-hour-long double album is heavily influenced by 1970s progressive rock, such as King Crimson, Pink Floyd and Yes. Many of the songs contain long solos and odd time signatures. Keyboards are also an important part of the album's sound.[2][3]
Despite being over six minutes long, "Myrskyn ratsut" was CMX's first number one single. String instruments and steel guitar can be heard on the slow, calm and melodic song.[4] Shortly thereafter, "Jatkuu niinkuin sade" became the second CMX song to top the Finnish singles chart.[5] Dinosaurus Stereophonicus was certified gold quickly after its release.[6]
