So earlier this year we released a teaser from our upcoming full-length, namely This Odometer Syndrome. As to compliment this, our bassist Skyler has lately filmed himself playing this song. So here’s for all of you – the 1st ever playthrough of a Sceptocrypt song! Click the YouTube link and headbang! Enjoy!
So 14 August we had our 1st headline gig in London, at Helgi’s.This was along the mighty Swedish death metal gurus In God’s Way, and menacing female duo Cariad. Here is the footage of some clips from this show. Enjoy!
Hi guys We now got a YouTube chnl you can follow at www.youtube.com/@sceptocrypt, which also comes with our new hashtag #youneednotfearshame We look forward to upload short & long vidz as time goes on. Having had our previous one removed for no reason, and Google not answering back to our claim to reinstate it, we highly appreciate if you could subscribe to the new channel, and share this post with hashtags #youneednotfearshame and #sceptocrypt. Thanks.
We have now found a vocalist & more will be announced as we work towards bringing Sceptocrypt back to the stage in 2025! We meanwhile want to shape our sound a bit more, and hence seek 2 more members, being – a noize/synth player to add electronics to our sound texture live! Whether your sounds come from computers, instruments, or synth, what matters is that you bring the noize! Anything from industrial to orchestral is welcome, as long as there is an actual human controlling this live on stage! – 2nd guitarist to add more beef to our sound. Although unnecessary, doubling on guitar synth/ using lots of effects is a welcome asset. About us – visionhttps://sceptocrypt.com/2023/11/19/manifesto-2023/– future2 albums’ worth…
Now that we finally have a drummer & are prepping to come out live early 2025, we are looking for a vocalist who can growl/scream (but be generally understood), and also sing clean (think doom, prog, industrial, etc but NOT nu-metal).Adding drama to your singing by bringing lyrics to life (current lyrics deal with mental health, technology failures, willpower, etc not dragons/satan/gore) is more than welcome! Basically the more theatrical you are, the more you can play with the audience! Listen to “The Wards Outside” to get a glimpse of our current sound (as every song differs a bit) & if you like what you hear, are London based/can commute here regularly for rehearsals, let’s set up a jam. Our vision…

It’s been a while now brewing, and here we are, happy to announce that we finally got a drummer in our fold. Please welcome he who for now shall be called Dr S! The doctor has been busy dealing with our riffs – chk him out here!. More reels to be revealed from time to time! As a band, we now have near to 35mins of music (3 songs), and are looking for a vocalist to prep up for live shows. Any interested parties, check our ad.
Despite active with other bands/musical activities, the idea of reviving Sceptocrypt never left founding member Malcolm. Since late 2022 he started jamming some songs written in 2014 & newer ideas with different musicians, and there is now near to 2 LPs running time of music, so a full line-up is being sought to present it live & on record! We are currently a guitarist (doubling as vocalist for recordings only), a bassist & a samples/noize synth guyWe are meanwhile looking to welcome– a drummer– a vocalist As you can read at https://sceptocrypt.com/category/press/, the band has been reviewed in the 90s as“demo of the month”“a hell of a musical masterpiece”“one of the most brilliant demoes in years”“good solutions for their music,…
We know that we promised a new work “The Wards Outside” for January 2024, but as we had a new logo in development, we decided to postpone the release by few weeks, as to include this new logo into the website and the single’s cover! Story goes that while Malcolm was in Malta last year he accidentally met Sceptocrypt’s 2nd vocalist and long time friend James Sciberras, few days before leaving the island. Having designed the original logo, we spoke about a new one, so he revamped the old one to include our new “extreme music research” tag into a more modern frame. So here for you our new logo for you to enjoy! We would be chuffed if you…
Proud of but not limited by the heritage that is extreme metal, Sceptocrypt have always been known to not be confined by one style and to welcome cross-genre influences! So for our re-launch, we have a vision that we are calling Extreme Music Research. Read our manifesto as follows! Extreme – driven by sonic experimentation, from over-the-top technical riffs to deliberate dissonance, complimented by time & harmonic changes that flow seamlessly, an extremity measured in the myriad of influences recalled to mould the final aural palette Music – in a time when visual media continually compliments the music industry, we aim to present you music that evokes you the more you close your eyes, aiding you to see colours with your…
