600.0. "Cerebus" by ANT::SLABOUNTY (It's 7 o'clock and I wanna mosh ...) Fri Jul 07 1989 14:12

	I also bought "Too Late to Pray" by Cerebus ... they seem
	to fall under 'speed metal'.  Fast guitar-work, and some-
	times too-fast vocals.  At first I was discouraged by the
	opening songs, but then a couple songs were OK.  Even fol-
	lowing the lyrics sheet was difficult 'coz the lead vocal-
	ist pronounces some of the words VERY strangely ... I found
	myself getting lost due to reading the wrong words (or so
	I thought at the time).

	A few songs worth mentioning:

	Longing for Home (ballad) - understandable and well-written.
	Rock the House Down - good H_M anthem
	Distant Eyes - my favorite off the album

	I should also make mention of the bassist ... Eric Burgess.
	He does a good job on this album, and also wrote most of
	the songs and/or music.

                                                        GTI

        Hmm...Cerebus. Is "Too Late to Pray" their first album, or
        have they been around a while? Judging on who bought it, 
        think I'll give 'em a try!
