New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Las Víctimas del Doctor Cerebro, one of the most distinctive bands since the 90's in Mexico and pioneers of a unique sound that mixes ska, punk rock and heavy metal as well as experimental electro-pop, released their ninth album titled El Rey De Los Monstruos (Cerebro Records/Dragora), and shortly after announced their tour in Mexico, Argentina and the USA.
With more than 25 years of career and 10 productions that have left their mark, the group originally from the
State of Mexico, emphasizes with this new album their hard rock roots with songs like "
Godzilla" and "Frankenstein", while the lyrics and rhythms in their first single "Diablo Adentro" are more playful, dipping into electronic. The origins of the group in ska are highlighted and renewed in their second single titled "Love".
The popularity of Víctimas del Dr. Cerebro has remained constant throughout the years and hits like "El Esqueleto" are already part of the classic Mexican rock song playlist of the 90's. Other memorable hits such as "Ya Tus Amigos" "Ella Se Muere" "Cadáver Del Amor" y "Humanos", among others, are a must in their concert set lists.
Also known for their spontaneity, energy and their scenic shock-rock, Víctimas del Dr. Cerebro was founded by father and son, Jesus Flores "El Chipotle" (keyboards, voice and saxophone) and Ricardo Flores "El Abulón" (voice and keyboards), after being part of the group Tecnopal. Later, the band united with two more brothers, Arturo Flores "El Tuco" (bass) and
Daniel Flores "El Ranas" (guitars), known as the youngest of the Flores Clan. After a few updates in the bands lineup with other participating musicians, the current group is now also formed by Adrián Toussaint (guitar) who is currently the musical director of La Barranca, and Julián André (drums), who has also participated as a drummer with Cecilia Touissant, Alfonso Andre, and in La Barranca.
The USA tour kicks off in July with performances in Ruido Fest on July 9 in
Chicago and Wuateke Rock Fest in Atlanta and
Houston in September, among other performances throughout the country.
