MUSIC
THE BAND
One of the breakout albums of 2024 was the self-titled debut album from Stockholm
based The Crypt. With their capturing mix of doom metal and classic heavy metal
with big choruses, they won both the audience as well as critics acclaim world wide.
The album, penned by Leif Edling of Candlemass and produced by Marcus Jidell
(Soen, Avatarium, Candlemass etc) instantly went to the top of the critics charts at
native magazine Sweden Rock, as well as several international magazines and
showed up on numerous “album of the year” charts around the globe.
Based around the charismatic and enigmatic Metal Priestess, embodied by vocalist
Pepper who’s on-stage presence quickly became a talking point, with her background
both in heavy metal and the world of burlesque. Festival audiences in Sweden and
Germany have testified to her strong presence, and, backed by guitarist Dave
McKenzie, drummer Danne McKenzie, keyboardist Floke and bassist Rigor Mortimer,
they pack a serious punch on stage.
Following the release of The Crypt, the band went out to play both local gigs as well
as festivals, before heading back to the studio to get more songs recorded. Once
again working with Leif Edling, they released what would be the theme song of online
game Rock Kommander, featuring guest vocals from none less than the legendary
Dee Snider of Twisted Sister fame. With a prominent placing in the game, Pepper’s
personality is one of the key player personalities.
2025 sees the band playing more festivals, as well as releasing a string of songs
penned by the band themselves, after returning to the studio with Marcus Jidell. The
first of these is the brutally heavy, yet chorus driven “Where the Dead don’t Sleep”,
once again illustrated by the iconic imagery of artist Costin Chioreanu. An acoustic,
beautifully stripped down version of fan favourite “I Love the Darkness” is also set for
a late spring release.
If 2024 was the year that saw The Crypt introduce themselves and make a serious
mark, 2025 is the year that sees them grow further and take their music and stunning
live show to the next level. Make sure you don’t miss out on this one!
