Cryptic Hatred

Cryptic Hatred is one of the most up and coming bands in the Finnish death metal scene. This young band was formed in 2019 by four friends bound together by their mutual passion for music and death metal.

The outcome is the new album Internal Torment, which the band calls a “much more musical and personal set of songs; they encompass a wider approach to death metal songwriting by combining varying influences of metal and hardcore. They are songs where melodies and different grooves can interact and thrive in mayhemic symbiosis. With these elements, we feel like the album has more of our own Cryptic Hatred sound and some really cool cryptic atmospheres.”

The album highlights the band’s surgical and intuitive take on death metal mechanics – yet also channels eerie atmospheres and dimensions through moments of tension and tranquility, coexisting in a fragile balance.
