Kryptos To Release New Album "Burn Up The Night," Music Video For New Track Available

2016 promises to be a breakout year for Indian metal act Kryptos with the imminent release of the fourth album entitled “Burn Up The Night," expected on September 23rd via AFM Records. With stunning 80’s cover art by Mattias Frisk (shown below) and a bare knuckles approach, the album brings back the glory days of heavy metal with razor sharp riffs, screaming solos and a raging twin guitar attack. Trends may come and go, but Kryptos continue to reinforce the old school ethos that they proudly swear by. Check out the music video for the new track "Full Throttle" below f you want a taste.

Highly influenced by Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Thin Lizzy and Accept, as well as Coroner and Kreator, Kryptos still manages to create an identity of it's own while staying true to it's roots. The band was formed in late 1998 in Bangalore, India, and have long been considered one of the spearheads of the Indian heavy metal revolution. Fighting the good fight for almost two decades, the band has released three critically acclaimed albums, supported some of the biggest names in metal and toured Europe multiple times. Kryptos released the first album, "Spiral Ascent," in 2004, which quickly spread through the Indian metal underground and other parts of the world.

In 2008, the band signed with Old School Metal Records from California and released “The Ark of Gemini” before embarking on their first European tour in 2010, making them the first Indian heavy metal band to do so. Kryptos then signed with AFM Records and released the third record “The Coils of Apollyon” in 2012, which met with stellar reviews from all quarters. The band followed this up with a first ever appearance at Wacken Open Air in 2013, a cross country European tour in 2014 and a supporting tour with Death Angel in 2015.
