Crypta Conquers the UK: Death Metal Queens Dominate with Explosive Tour Performances
The United Kingdom has just witnessed a seismic musical event, as Brazilian death metal powerhouse **Crypta** completed their highly anticipated UK tour, leaving a trail of electrified fans and unforgettable performances in their wake. With venues packed from London to Manchester and from Glasgow to Birmingham, Crypta proved once again why they are hailed as one of the most powerful and dynamic acts in the global metal scene today.
Formed in 2019 by former members of all-female thrash outfit Nervosa, Crypta has quickly built a reputation for their aggressive sound, technical precision, and magnetic stage presence. The band, fronted by the ferocious **Fernanda Lira** on vocals and bass, along with **Tainá Bergamaschi** and **Jéssica di Falchi** on guitars, and **Luana Dametto** on drums, brought their unique blend of old-school death metal with modern intensity to the UK stage — and they did not disappoint.
Their setlist was a thunderous mix of fan favorites from their debut album *Echoes of the Soul* and their critically acclaimed sophomore release *Shades of Sorrow*. Tracks like “From the Ashes,” “Dark Night of the Soul,” and “Trial of Traitors” sent shockwaves through the crowd, each riff and growl more brutal than the last. Luana’s drumming, in particular, stood out with machine-like precision, drawing massive applause at every show.
Beyond the music, the band’s message of empowerment, resilience, and representation in a predominantly male genre was deeply felt. Fans, both new and longtime followers, spoke about the impact Crypta had on them, particularly young women inspired by the band’s unapologetic presence in the extreme metal scene.
“This tour was more than just a series of concerts — it was a movement,” said Sophie Richards, a fan from Leeds who attended the Birmingham show. “Crypta gave us everything on stage. It was raw, powerful, and absolutely unforgettable.”
Critics were equally impressed. *Metal Hammer UK* praised the band’s “tight execution and unrelenting energy,” while *Kerrang!* dubbed them “the new vanguard of death metal.”
With their UK tour now wrapped, Crypta sets their sights on upcoming dates across Europe and North America. Judging by the explosive reception in the UK, the rest of the world had better prepare for the storm that is Crypta.
One thing is clear: the Queens of Death Metal have arrived — and they’re here to reign supreme.
