Exclusive reviews and promo records


In March 2021 the new album "The Final Chapter" will be released and already now the fan community is overflowing. NECRONOMICON sound more international, more massive and with a so far unprecedented sound, fatter and grippier than ever. Once again Achim Köhler has worked on the sound (mix and mastering / co-production) and the result is simply overwhelming. And the name "The Final Chapter" ? Maybe the last album of the cult thrashers? Beware of the beast.

Cryptosis are what happens when metal is allowed to evolve, to expand and to breathe. An invigorating shot in the arm for the entire metal scene.
