Philadelphia doom metallers CRYPT SERMON are streaming “Heavy Riders,” a song from their forthcoming new album, Out of the Garden.
The project itself is new, but the musicians behind it have spent combined decades honing their skills and perfecting their vision. CRYPT SERMON features members of Ashencult, Hivelords, Infiltrator, Trenchrot, and Labyrinthine. Drawing heavily upon Solitude Aeturnus, Candlemass, Mercyful Fate, and Dio-era Black Sabbath, Crypt Sermon amalgamizes the absolute best of traditional heavy metal and doom metal. Its members focus on excellent musicianship and well-crafted songs. They truly care about writing heavy riffs and killer solos – not just tuning their guitars low.
In the early days of 2015, the band will release their debut-full length, Out Of The Garden, on CD/LP/digital format through Dark Descent once more. The breathtaking cover art was painted by the band’s vocalist Brooks Wilson.
