The band comments single:
“‘The song “Nekromanteion of Ephyra”, describes the necromantic temple near the ancient city of Ephira in ancient Greece, which devotees believed to be the gateway to Hades. He recounts the dark route taken by the worshippers, the macabre ceremonies, rituals, offerings and sacrifices, as votive and propitiatory gestures”

BIOGRAPHY:
The Kreyl project was born during the winter of 2020, in the city of Barcelona (Catalunya/Spain), from an idea of Virus Tremor, guitarist of the band and also guitarist of the black metal band Nefasta and the brutal death metal band Handle with Hate. It was inspired by the album ‘I’ by the Finnish black metal band Hedonihil and many other bands of the second wave of black metal. Later on the Kreyl project was joined by: Croma Lan Ro as drummer, also drummer of the black metal band Fogos; Necrum Nebulas as bass player and already a member of the brutal death bands Caustic and Handle with Hate; I. Luna as guitarist, already member of the brutal death band
Caustic and Eris Nocturna Aura on vocals, already singer in the black metal band Nefasta and mastermind of the dark ambient solo project Aetheria (Italy).
Kreyl’s idea is to move away from the usual themes centred on Satan and Anti-Christianity and to focus more on historical-cultural themes closely related to the concept of death, occultism, ancient civilizations, exalting also the most raw, violent and brutal local mythology and paganism from a philosophical and dark point of view.
Strictly limited CD is now available on pre-order
