Our Take

In his latest album, "X-Rated Fairy Tales", Helios Creed takes us on a mind-bending journey through a sonic landscape that is equal parts psychedelic, bizarre, and utterly captivating. As one of the pioneers of the underground music scene, Creed showcases his trademark blend of punk, industrial, and space rock in a way that is both innovative and timeless.

From the opening track "Deep Blue Love Vacuum" to the closing notes of "Secrets of the Secret", Creed masterfully weaves together layers of distorted guitars, pulsating rhythms, and ethereal vocals to create a sound that is truly unique. The album's themes of sex, death, and otherworldly beings only add to its enigmatic charm, leaving the listener both enthralled and slightly unnerved.

Tracks like "Lactating Purple" and "Electric Sky Church" showcase Creed's ability to push the boundaries of conventional music, while still maintaining a sense of cohesion and accessibility. His guitar work is both frenetic and controlled, with each riff and solo adding a new dimension to the album's overall sonic landscape.

Overall, "X-Rated Fairy Tales" is a masterclass in experimental rock music, and a testament to Creed's enduring influence on the genre. It's a wild, unpredictable ride that is sure to leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about music. Strap in, dear readers, and prepare to be taken on a journey unlike any other.
