• CRYSTAL VIPER take no prisoners, and strike back with a brand new studio album: “The Silver Key”! Due to all lyrics being once again inspired by the works of the father of Cosmic Horror, Howard Phillips Lovecraft, the album is a natural continuation of the previous full length release, “The Cult”, which came out on Listenable Records in 2021. In fact, working title of the new album was “The Cult II”. However, “The Silver Key” is an album with very own identity and character, and is without a doubt the most intense release that CRYSTAL VIPER ever recorded.

• “The Silver Key” is heavier, faster, but at the same more epic and melodic than their previous works. In the past the band was very often balancing between Power Metal and Heavy Metal, but here, there’s no doubt that we are talking about pure Heavy Metal. First few minutes of new album make it obvious that we’re dealing with worshippers of Metal gods such as JUDAS PRIEST or IRON MAIDEN, as the album is full of epic and catchy vocal lines, twin guitar leads, ripping solos and all of this with massive, yet very dynamic rhythm section. The band had very unique approach to songwriting and production which was almost like a tribute to the mentioned classic acts, but except that CRYSTAL VIPER decided to show their love for the Metal culture and its current state, and incorporated in their songs several new elements, characteristic for other subgenres. So don’t get fooled by the term “female-fronted” which usually is associated with softer genres: CRYSTAL VIPER, founded and led by the vocalist and bassist Marta Gabriel (for the record: who for the last few years played rhythm guitar for the band), is simply as that METAL, and very serious about it.

• Since the release of the debut album in 2007, the band keeps on touring, and is playing at both huge festival stages and small venues, being faithful to their very own words - we are Metal Nation! With “The Silver Key” being 9th (!) studio album of the band, it’s also clear they’re one of the most hard working and most determined acts of the new generation.
