"Life Sucks... And Then You Die!" was the debut album by Cerebral Fix – a thrash metal band from Birmingham, England. It was released in 1988 on the independent record label, Vinyl Solution, and was followed by an altogether different sounding album – following mass line-up changes and a switch to major label, Roadrunner Records – "Tower of Spite" in 1990. To support the album, the band toured the UK with Bolt Thrower, Deviated Instinct, Doom, Electro Hippies, Concrete Sox, Bomb Disneyland, Hellbastard, Energetic Krusher, and Hard-Ons.

Overview

Following a successful demo in 1987, "We Need Therapy", the band were picked up by London based label, Vinyl Solution, and set about recording a raw album which eventually gained exposure via the John Peel Radio 1 programme alongside emerging bands like Napalm Death and Extreme Noise Terror.
