814.0. "Cerebral Fix" by KETJE::VLASIU () Tue Oct 29 1991 10:37

This topic is for the british band Cerebral Fix. I've listened their (new)
album, "Tower of spite" and I like it.
The music is riff driven. Very heavy and catchy riffs, a bit like early Black
Sabbath but updated to new standards. It's not thrash, nor speed, just medium to
fast very heavy riffing. All this with a 'heavy' voice (some may not like it).
If you like heavy riffs than that's for you. Me, I like it and listened the CD
already few times. The overall mood is quite dark but not exagerated.
Very heavy drumming too. CF recall me a bit the other british band, Re-animator,
which is also very heavy but more thrashy (their first two albums not the last).
All the songs on the CD are quite well balanced.
Recommended !

	Actually,they`ve just released a 2nd album delightfully called "Bastards". It`s got good reviews,and is better than the first album,apparently. I saw them support NAPALM DEATH,and thought they were excellent. Also,check out the band BOLTHROWER,if you like British grungy thrash. Joe Strummer.

	I am not into Cerebral Fix, but Bolt Thrower (yes, they're brutal). Actually, I just saw them last couple weeks ago. -Dle ! ! -+- !

	Re. 'pril I think Cerebral Fix is darker than (early) Black Sabbath but they are less dark than Sepultura (and CF isn't a thrasher). Sorin PS. Sepultura is very dark but also one of the very best thrashers today.
