This is the debut album from the deathcore band called "Cerebus."
"This album will mark a new chapter in our lives, as well as a new chapter of being a band. We sincerely hope that you pick up this record tomorrow and share it and encourage your friends to do the same. We are literally only as big as you make us. Help us reach the world in the coming months!"
What's the story behind "Cerebus" who had the idea to start it and when did it happen?
Cerebus was originally a project between Kyle and I that started last summer (2013). Kyle and I had been jamming together, in and out of projects, for years and constantly writing for the fun of it with no serious intentions. We had written songs before but we got to working on one song last summer that we were actually pretty happy with. We put a ton of time into it and we eventually asked our buddy Jesse to lay some vocals down for it. It turned out monumentally better than any of us had really expected, and we just sort of rolled with it. That's how our first song "Is Created By" came about. We've kind of buried it and forgotten about it since the new music is much better, however.
What are some of your main musical influences? Who got you into wanting to start a band?
Our main influences go for "Hallelujah," Meshuggah is number one. That would be pretty obvious with some of the more groove-oriented tracks. Vocally, the album is a lot like older Cannibal Corpse. A lot of the structure we use comes from bands like The Faceless. We're all really into a wide variety of death metal, as well as more "chill" music. We could go on for ages about the bands we like but as far as the top 5 go, it's something like: Meshuggah, Cannibal Corpse, The Faceless, The Last Ten Seconds of Life, and Legion. Our influences constantly change, however.
