Keep away! The brood crawls out of its thermonuclear contaminated tomb and getting your hands on their new full-length effort turns your flesh into a foul stinking and dripping mass of rotting decay. They extended their unique formular for how to collar the drill to lobotomize you and present themselves on their third album “Necrotic Flesh Bacteria” in their best shape to date. Taking the spread of musical influences of CRYPTIC BROOD to a new level, this Wolfsburg/Germany based trio proves, that even after more than ten years of existence in a constant line-up, there’s still a lot of toxic sludge circulating in their veins to infect you with rotten metal of death!

Re-release of “Outcome Of Obnoxious Science” on tape out now
Lycanthropic Chants is pleasing the demand for our second album with a re-release on tape. This time on luminous transparent green shell tapes, hand-numbered, with 5 panel J-card, separate lyric sheet and a bandcamp download.
We just released a new song that’s streaming as music video over on YouTube! The song is part of our upcoming EP “Caustic Fetid Vomit” that will be released physically on 7″ vinyl on 30th September 2022. It’s already available for ordering directly from us now at this location.
The brood is back from a year in morbid sleep with a new feral offering entitled “Caustic Fetid Vomit”. A return of such cemetery stench and obnoxious science as befits the purveyors of the vile sides of the Death Metal spectrum.
As always, CRYPTIC BROOD spewing forth a delight for seasoned and new listeners alike, with an organic sound perfectly encapsulating what makes this German trio never lose their greatest strength—attaining a suffocatingly heavy music filled with reeking, gloomy atmosphere from their sonic signature, a colossal sound of rawness and madness.
What’s certain is that time will melt away throughout eleven minutes of an endless putrid nightmare, rapidly expanding outward in every direction of the alternate dimensional horrific planes that these German fiends have been delivered.
In crafting the 7”, the brood’s funeral rite was recorded at s.v. Jugendhaus Ost in Wolfsburg. Mixed and mastered by the infamous Marco Brinkmann at Hellforge Studio. The twisted and yet sinister genius cover artwork appears courtesy of Mortuus Art.
And now, the cryptic seeds have been sown. Are you prepared to enter the Grave of the Brood?
All versions have poly-lined black inner-sleeves, 300gsm cover with 3mm spine and 170gsm insert plus Bandcamp download code:
When one death/doom trio wasn’t enough, Rotted Life Records spanned the Atlantic to double the disgust, bringing together Virginia’s NIGHT HAG, and Germany’s CRYPTIC BROOD for one foul smelling split LP. The result is 7 putrid excretions of death, decay, and doom, complete with all the oozing and gooey accoutrements you’d expect from these two bands. You’re not going to come away smarter, but the layer of skin that sloughs off is going to give you a radiant glow.
Our album „Outcome Of Obnoxious Science“ will see a re-release on tape format by the South American label Burning Coffin Records. Release is set to December 2020. We will have copies available soon.
Get your brain vaporised in a vortex of filth and watch the music video for the title track:
This one was brewing for some time but will finally be released in December 2020. Three exclusive tracks by NIGHT HAG and four by CRYPTIC BROOD.
We recorded our music in December 2019 in our rehearsal room at s.v. Jugendhaus Ost in Wolfsburg. Vocals were recorded in the Lycanthropic Chants dungeon in February 2020. Marco Brinkmann at Hellforge Studio mixed our tracks in May 2020 and the mastering was handled by Bob Quirk in June 2020. Artwork by Caleb Dickenson. The LP was layouted by FINAdesigns.
