Across the hills and valleys, from the cold winters of Polska to the bittersweet rumble of London town, we present you Pawel. Bringing vocals, stage tricks, and general good vibes to the band, we continue to shape new music and lyrics bearing titles as “Cherish the Tail that Chokes You”, “This Odometer Syndrome” and “A Place for Thorned Souls”.See you later this 2025 with more news!
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.
It’s been since 1997 that Sceptocrypt have not played live. So what better way to celebrate our renaissance than at an open air festival called Renaissance? Ever wondered how abrasive tunes with dissonant chord voicings comes across in an acoustic set? Come down as this will be a special first-ever acoustic show! Of course our search for a permanent vocalist/frontman and more importantly a drummer are still on. Details here for who is interested. Browse the official Renaissance Festival event page for more details on all the other bands etc and for a history of all other gigs we played in the 90s.
With Sceptocrypt’s return since 2023, we are currently looking for reviews for our never promoted 1999 recording “!26hrs 72mins … the need to differ)” as well as our latest 2023 & 2024 new music.Some interviews would also be welcome, so we look frwd to hear from you media lot. The 1st interview was during a Maltese podcast Rockna, a nice chat with host Michael about the latest in the world of Sceptocrypt & what we got stored in the pipeline. Audible at https://netondemand.mt/play/16458, the Maltese show switches to English while interviewing Sceptocrypt in its 2nd part. More airplay, reviews & interviews will be posted at www.sceptocrypt.com/category/press. Any interested media can contact us via the same page.
Here are current and older critiques of our works. If you want to write a review about any of our music so far, just fill hereunder. Thank you! The Wards Outside (2024)Feel free to leave us your comments on our 1st track showcasing our new Extreme Music Research direction! Right off the bat, the listener can appreciate the exquisite musicianship from a string and composer’s perspective, with the guitars taking the listener on an entropic rollercoaster ride, never knowing what to expect next. ….. This, for the most part allows each passage to seamlessly blend into the next….. a variety of vocals varying from old-school raspy screeches to low pitch-shifted growls. These, along with high-pitched “psychiatric” cackles and use of…

Are you ready to play a game with Sceptocrypt? Shamelessly, and with no pardon why a tune has to be short, to even be called a song, or to please a format that the market or trends ask for, we present you a 12min+ soundscape entitled “The Wards Outside”! Looking at the father of the European avant-garde, Monsieur Antonin Artaud, unjustly incarcerated for his forward-thinking Theatre of Cruelty, here shouting his lungs out to a deaf society on a palette of extreme metal rifferama, with hidden influences from other genres! So back to the game!Can you decipher what the backward singing towards the end of our tune is telling you? Or where “Or, cet esprit venu des Indiens d’Amérique ressort…
