CÉRBERO

My Photos por


Genre(s): Power / Heavy Metal


Formed in São Paulo - SP, 1980. Cerbero was formed in 1980 in Sao Paulo, Brazil by the brothers Marco Tonalezzi and Carlo Tonalezzi on guitars and Sergio Goncalves on bass and vocals. With the addition of Tony Fontao on Drums in 1981 Cerbero's classic formation was complete..... The idea was to play the fastest and heaviest metal we could come up with and at the same time keep it musical and interesting for our audience and us... ..The band started gigging at several new venues that were opening up in Sao Paulo. Just to name a few: Rainbow Bar, Lira Paulistana, Carbono 14, Vila Mariana and Fofinho Rock Club..... In a very short time, Cerbero amounted a considerable number of very loyal friends and fans, which packed every show. At the time, the beginning of what would become a major movement towards a more aggressive, fast and powerful form of Metal was taking place. The terms Thrash, Power and Speed Metal had just started to appear. Motörhead, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and heavier and faster bands were doing very good and Cerbero was doing it's best to become Brazil's prime example of that new form of Metal..... At around 1983 someone from a fanzine in Brazil compared us to Metallica!...and our reaction was..."Who the F*** is Metallica?!", hehehe... We decided to check them out, liked what we heard and decided to do a cover of "Metal Militia" in order to show our audience that we too could pull it off, and in fact were already doing it, but we felt we needed to show our Brazilian audience that we were up to "international standards". It worked!.... In 2005 in order to mark the 25th Anniversary of the band's formation, Cerbero released the "Official Bootleg Live at the Rainbow, SP, Brazil 1983" CD which is one of the very few recordings available from what many consider to be one of the very first Thrash Metal bands in the world! These recordings were made live with bare minimum equipment. Come to think of it, it is pretty amazing that they even exist al all. With that said...we hope that you enjoy these recordings for what they are...a bunch of guys giving all they've got and an amazing amount of energy being exchanged between the band and the audience!.... Cerbero made the move from Brazil to the U.S.A (NYC) in 1985 and the main objective was to find a singer who would have the same passion for true metal and deliver it with with the same power and energy as the band itself..... Cerbero is currently writting and recording new material for a much antecipated (and overdue) studio album which is scheduled to be released in 2009..... We are also scheduled to appear on a DVD/Documentary/Show called "Brasil Heavy Metal" ( www.brasilheavymetal.com.br ), being produced right now and scheduled to happen in 2011.
