Crypta (feat. Fernanda Lira & Luana Dametto)



Fernanda Lira
is a bassist and singer from São Paulo. Born in 1989 and having her 1st contact with Metal at a very young age, she first felt like learning bass at 13.
As a teenager, she played in many all girl bands from different metal genres.
Later on, she studied Journalism for 3 years and had a career in the metal press, working for many vehicles writing articles, interviews and live reviews and even hosting both metal TV and Radio shows.
In 2011 she joined the Brazilian thrash metal band Nervosa, which career she helped build for almost a decade, recording their first EP called ‘2012' and their following 3 full lengths - “Victim of Yourself”, “Agony” and “Downfall of Mankind”. With them, she also got to tour with solid names in metal and play many gigs in almost 60 countries, including some of the most important festivals around the globe. She decided to leave the band in April 2020.
She's currently full-time focused on Crypta only, which she co-founded in June 2019, and where she plans to invest all her time and experience earned throughout the last years.

Sonia Anubis is a 21 year old guitarist & bassist from The Netherlands.
Inspired by KISS, at age 14 she picked up the bass and later she started playing guitar too. She is a self-taught musician.
Her extreme taste developed at age 17, she joined numerous death metal bands on bass such as Sepiroth. At age 19, she joined her first band as guitarist, the all-girl heavy metal band Burning Witches. With them she released the ‘Wings of Steel’ EP, albums ‘Hexenhammer’ & ‘Dance With The Devil’, and toured internationally, playing many big festivals such as Wacken & Sweden Rock. She decided to leave the band in 2020 due to personal reasons.
In 2019, Sonia founded heavy metal band Cobra Spell as lead-guitarist, and together with Fernanda and Luana, she started Crypta to go back to her extreme roots on lead guitar.
Sonia Anubis studied & has had a career as web-developer, which she stopped, to fully commit in writing music, give guitar lessons, and focus on her YouTube channel ‘Sonia Anubis’.

Tainá Bergamaschi is a Brazilian guitarist born in 1996 in Barbacena, Minas Gerais.
She first developed her interest in music when she earned a classic guitar from her family, around 10 years, which she started practicing and learning by herself.
Later on, she got her first electric guitar, and had her first contact with extreme music, deciding, then, to learn more about heavy distortion and electric guitars, joining her first band at the age of 14.
Throughout her career, she played in bands from different metal genres, such as thrash, symphonic, and on her most recent ventures with her former band Hagbard, folk metal.

Luana Dametto is a drummer from south Brazil. She began to dedicate herself to music and learn drums by the age of 12, until later on, at the age of 16, she joined her first band, Apophizys, where she discovered her passion and preference for Death Metal. With this band, she released her first full-length in 2015, called “Into the Chaos”. In 2016, she got to work as a session drummer for a Black Metal band. She studied Graphic Design at UPF in order to build a career in this field, while still working as a musician in her spare time, until the age of 19. Then, in late 2016, she joined the Thrash Metal band Nervosa, where she recorded their third full-length, “Downfall of Mankind”. After the album release, she traveled and toured a lot around the world, playing at many big festivals, making, then, music also her occupation. At the age of 23, in 2020, she left the band, and started focusing only on her new musical project with some friends, called Crypta, which she co-founded in June 2019 and where she currently plays.
Although Death Metal has always been her favorite genre to listen to and play, she never got the chance to join a band in this genre, making her addition to Crypta, in May 2020, a big shot to pursuit a musical career she has always dreamt and worked for.

 
We are very proud to announce we signed with NAPALM RECORDS!

This means our debut record will be released by this great Austrian label, who also has in their roster big current names like Jinjer, Powerwolf and Alestorm, but also some other solid bands in metal history, like Candlemass, W.A.S.P., Grave Digger, Samael, Cavalera Conspiracy, among many others!
"I was really surprised when Napalm got in touch with us interested in signing the band right after we announced Crypta officially! But more than surprised, I felt just really happy, once i've always had a nice relationship with them during my previous ventures, so being able to keep working with this label now is just great, it feels like family! Overall, the band is very excited and feeling so lucky for having the chance of such a big kickstart! We can't wait to get things going and we hope it's gonna be a fruitful path together!" states Fernanda Lira, singer and bassist for Crypta.
Markus Jacob, Product Manager at Napalm Records comments “From what we could lay our ears on thus far, their debut album is going to be nothing but crushing and will offer a fresh outlook on old school death metal!”.

Das war so klar!! :D
 
Die ersten Höreindrücke auf Facebook versprechen guten Death Metal.

Nervosa haben zwar die schärfere Bassistin, aber solche Oberflächlichkeiten sollten für die Musik nicht ausschlaggebend sein.

Es darf in jedem Fall mal ein Crypta Tape kommen, die Mucke klingt wie dafür gemacht
 
Definitiv mehr Death Metal Einflüsse als auf der neuen Nervosa, wenn man das Video zugrunde legt.
Ich werde einmal das ganze Album abwarten, um mir ein endgültiges Urteil bilden zu können.
 
Bei dem zweiten Song will mir der Gesang nicht gefallen.
Die tieferen Vocals sagen mir viel mehr zu.
Dafür ist instrumental viel schönes dabei.
Aber für einen Blindkauf reicht es bei mir bisher nicht
 
Das Album ist wirklich stark geworden. Einen direkten Vergleich mit NERVOSA spare ich mir mal, hätten die Thrasherinnen eh verloren.
 
Habe es letztens mal beim Kollegen nebenbei laufen gehabt.

An und für sich sehr gelungen, bloß hätte ich mi gewünscht, dass Fernanda mehr growlt und weniger wie Dani Filth klingt.

Die instrumentale Arbeit wiederum ist absolut überragend. Mal schauen, ob ich im April irgendwie nach Mannheim komme
 
Die Band hatte jetzt einen "Live"-Auftritt auf Youtube präsentiert und auch wenn das alles gut gespielt ist und die Riffs selbst auch gut klingen (könnten), gerade bei den Gitarren fehlt mir da Dreck und Gewalt.
Bass, Gesang, Drums, alles wunderbar soweit, aber die Gitarristinnen klingen, als ob sie nur ihren Job machen, nicht als ob sie den Kram wirklich fühlen.

Vielleicht bringt ja die neue Besetzung an der Gitarre etwas mehr Power mit
