CERBERUS - interview in Youth Magazine 1982



Cerberus was a Hungarian punkband between 1981-1982. But they weren’t a real punks. Why i wrote about them? Because Cerberus was a „special” band. The band formed in end of 1981, when the Hungarian footballer team manager ’s two sons founded this band. Therefore they were in a special position: punk was a forbidden in communist Hungary, but Cerberus was a only punkband who appeared in IFJÚSÁGI MAGAZIN (Youth Magazine), they got a one interview in 1982 where they could speak about their aims and other things…
However Cerberus never was a „official” punkband, it couldn’t be true.
What was they music? Cerbeus’s music was a not too exciting punk. Simple chords with typical silly lyrics e.g. „AKTAKUKAC” and „NE MENJ FEL A GELLÉRTHEGYRE” (In English: Paper worm ; Don’t go up to Gellérthegy).
I think they never made demo or rehearsaltapes, but i know, they have some rare concert recordings from 1982. I search these recordings for a long time ago…

So, here’s , i got the Cerberus Youth Magazine interview from 1982. If you click the link, you can download this article in scanned version!
