Helios Creed - Kiss To The Brain

Review by Dan Brajkovic

Helios Creed's album "Kiss To The Brain" is a psychedelic journey that takes the listener on a wild ride through a variety of musical styles. The album features Creed's signature guitar work, which is at times frenzied and chaotic, and at other times melodic and dreamy.

The opening track, "Nirbasion Annasion," sets the tone for the album with its heavy, distorted guitars and driving rhythm. From there, the album takes the listener through a range of moods and textures, from the spacey, atmospheric "Lactating Purple" to the hard-hitting, punk-inspired "The Rant."

One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Descent," which features a hypnotic, repetitive guitar riff that builds in intensity as the song progresses. The vocals are distorted and otherworldly, adding to the overall sense of unease and disorientation.

About Helios Creed

American guitarist, singer and bandleader born November 3, 1953 in Long Beach, California. He first came to prominence in the mid 1970s with Chrome, later establishing a solo career. Helios has said that he invented his trademark guitar sound trying to replicate the sound he heard in his head, while "listening to Black Sabbath on LSD on headphones when I was a teenager." Creed has lived in Hawaii, San Francisco, Oklahoma and currently lives in Portland, Oregon, still touring... sporadically.

Awesome
Thank you for posting, don't ever delete this, I need it for my continued survival in this fucking helll-shit of a life and I;ve added it to my playlist. Helios is a guitar genius.
WOW !!!! MrWzzzW ,,,,,,,, Thanks for placing all these Helios Creed releases up on your subscriptions page , for what a breath of fresh air they have proven to be for me ,,,,,,,, Having been aware of CHROME & their albums ~ of which I have gradually been introducing myself to , in sparrodic & brief instances over the last 15 - 20 years or so , as & when the mood took me , & in all that time I have had many suggestions that I should familiarise myself with the releases output of Helios Creed . A suggestion as to which I have been nonchalantly neglecting for these last 15 - 20 years , always indulging my flippant whims & exploring a myriad of other genres but not the masterpieces of this man , through pure ignorance I hasten to add , & that had been the norm for my errant interests in many a genre ~ too many to mention , until yesterday ,,,,, That was when the notion hit me , urging me to investigate all those prior suggestions , & do an exploratory examination into the rather large number of releases by the man in question . Well what a voyage of discovery that has been ,,,, & through sheer luck ,,,,,, I found your subscriptions page to aid me in that quest , & it has been an absolute listening pleasure investigating the good offering of releases that you have posted , ,,,,, & so I'd like to posthumously say : - "THANK YOU !!" ,,,,,, for offering such a good selection & means of accessing Helios Creeds 'musical genius' ...... You've provided a very gratifying baptism for this here (former) infidel , & your guidance has been much appreciated too ,,,,,,,,, many thanks
Love tripping to this and everything the man has ever done. Have you heard the new Chrome? It’s a thing of beauty. Put it on after 15 hours of no music other than my vibrational fields within competing outside fields of varying systems. Then it went on and whoa! Fucking brilliant!
GREAT 6th solo album.!!
LOVE OUR SOLAR SYSTEM.

One of the 3 best H albums. (Lactating Purple and X Rated Fairy Tales are the others.)

1992 ahead of it's time.
Total fucking masterpiece of an album. Came out the same year as Ministry's Psalm 69. Shredded it to pieces!
