JESSI LEAVES CRYPTA

'AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE IN METAL'

It has just been announced via Instagram that guitar virtuoso Jessica DiFalchi has left fast-rising all-female Brazilian Death Metal band, Crypta. 

Formed by ex-Nervosa members Fernanda Lira and Luana Dametto, Crypta are that rarest of bands (especially in Death Metal circles), where the band's presentation and sonic assault is matched by their skill and virtuosity.

Teamed with fellow guitar maestra Taina Bergamaschi, and touring virtually non-stop since lockdown, Crypta have become an unstoppable force in Metal. Jessica will leave a big space to fill, but we look forward to seeing what the future holds for both parties.

ENVY OF NONE - UNDER THE STARS - OFFICIAL VIDEO

'ROCK SUPERGROUP'
ENVY OF NONE

With a video referencing Classic Pulp Sci-Fi art, Katsuhiro Otomo's ubiquitous AKIRA anime, and Sixties psychotronic art, the song Under The Stars is actually a beautiful homage to trippy '90s Shoegaze'; a sonic flashback to the era of reverb-drenched guitars and dreamy, ethereal vocals. 



PRESS RELEASE: 

Speaking on the single, songwriter and bassist Andy Curran said “Alf & I toiled over this one for months and really felt, even at its rough demo stage that we had something special. We left a ton of space for Maiah in the verses and there’s such a cool mood shift when the chorus hits. Joe Vitale's drum track and percussion added an almost trance like vibe and the icing on the cake, is an unmistakable “Alex” guitar solo. I’m a romantic at heart and the message here is universal.  Soul mates, "two against the world!” 

Under The Stars video was created by Olivier Bosco

Envy Of None are: Alf Annibalini - Guitar, Keyboards; Andy Curran - Bass Guitar, Background Vocals, Guitar; Alex Lifeson- Guitar, Mandola, Oud; Maiah Wynne - Lead Vocals, Background Vocals, Keyboards
