Kryptos… A Force of Danger!

Two years since their last album, the vicious Afterburner, India’s heavy metal force Kryptos return to invoke the ultimate sound of denim and leather with the release of their sixth studio album, Force Of Danger, that will be out on 1st October, through AFM Records.

The band, who formed in 1998 in Bangalore, have long been considered as one of the spearheads of the Indian heavy metal revolution.

With five critically acclaimed albums under their belt, they have supported some of metal’s biggest names like Iron Maiden, Testament, Kreator, Exodus, Death Angel and many more, earning themselves a reputation as a fiery and exciting live act.

After previously the singles ‘Force of Danger’ and ’Raging Steel’, the band has now issued ‘Hot Wired’ from their upcoming album.

It’s time to burn rubber!” announced Kryptos frontman Nolan Lewis. “City lights and neon nights is the name of the game, so get into cruise control and blaze through the streets with ‘Hot Wired’ – The third single off Force Of Danger.

 “Check out the scorching new Kryptos video for ‘Hot Wired’ that brings back killer memories from when we were ripping it up on the road in Europe and burning through the countryside spreading righteous heavy metal in our wake,” he continued.

“Nothing beats touring and partying with all you amazing headbangers, so this goes out to metalheads everywhere – Keep the fire burning!”

Kryptos burst into the heavy metal scene with their debut album Spiral Ascent in 2004. They were the first Indian heavy metal band ever touring Europe.

They followed this by a worldwide signing with AFM Records, countless shows on tour with high class metal acts, two appearances at Wacken Open Air and many more prestigious festival stages. 2019 saw Kryptos not only headlining a European tour, but also the release of their fifth and most successful album to date, Afterburner.
 
This Autumn, Kryptos are set to put the pedal to the absolute metal as they once again strike back with their blistering brand of 80s inspired heavy metal in Force of Danger.

It drops on October 1st 2021 through AFM Records and features the following tracks: ‘Raging Steel’, ‘Hot Wired’, ‘Dawnbreakers’, ‘Thunderchild’, ‘Nighthawk’, ‘Omega Point’, ‘Force of Danger’ and ‘Shadowmancer’.
