Spectral Extravagance 2009

"Cerebrum is a new Greek technical/ progressive death metal act and Spectral Extravagance is their debut full-lenght studio album. The music is technical/ progressive death metal with an early90s US death metal sensibility. Especially Morbid Angel comes to mind a couple of times during the playing time. Cerebrum is a bit more progressive in sound than Morbid Angel though and acts such as Gorguts, Pestilence, Nocturnus and Theory in Practice also comes to mind. The album features a guest appearance by Nile drummer George Kollias who plays the drums on the album. A very promising debut album and a recommendable purchase for fans of the genre."
