Crypta announces new album “Shades Of Sorrow”, shares first single “Lord Of Ruins”

Author Hernan Osuna - 1.6.2023

Brazilian death metal outfit Crypta will unleash their second album, “Shades of Sorrow”, on 4th August via Napalm Records. The band has released the new album’s first single, “Lord Of Ruins”. Watch the official music video below.

On “Shades of Sorrow” the group stays true to their unique sound that was introduced on their first full-length, blending classic and modern death metal with significant extreme and black metal elements. Straight from the burning gates of death metal salvation, their brand new single, “Lord of Ruins“, serves as a relentless harbinger of what the new album has to offer and a smashing dose of true CRYPTA sound, leaving the listener breathless.

The song is highlighted by a demonic, captivating official video that showcases the full power of the matchless combination.

Drummer Luana Dametto states: “Lord of Ruins’ was our pick for a first single ‘cause it combines both melodic and aggressive melodies that are present throughout the whole album. So we thought it’s a good representation of what to expect of the whole piece. It’s also the final song of the record and it has a very impactful meaning. It’s the closure of the whole album concept and it also fits perfectly to the artwork concept we had in mind.”

Fernanda Lira (vocals, bass) adds: “Shades of Sorrow is a semi-concept album that describes a journey through the depths of our psyche when facing tough battles. It’s a trip to the many shades of pain we sometimes have to face while enduring our lives’ challenges. The songs are the perfect gloomy, dark, emotional soundtrack for this journey.“
