Now dis-banded and ex-members formed The Eternal, Cryptal Darkness is an atmospheric and melodic death/doom metal band in the vein of My Dying Bride and early-to-middle era Anathema. Blending melodic guitars, the dark atmosphere of keyboards, violins and painful male vocals. Martin (ex-My Dying Bride) used to play the violin before the namechange. Due to legal reasons the band changed their name from Cryptal Darkness to The Eternal in early 2003.
This band is really great, love thoose violins.
They Whispered You HAd Risen is truly an amazing album, in the vein of MDb The angel and the dark river era.
Atmospheric death/gothic doom metal.
