In a metal landscape packed with technical mastery and thunderous extremity, few bands have surged as rapidly and as convincingly as CRYPTA. Formed in Brazil and built upon a shared vision of crushing heaviness and uncompromising authenticity, the band’s momentum owes a great debt to the combined force of three standout musicians: guitarists Jessica Falchi and Tainá Bergamaschi, and bassist–vocalist Fernanda Lira.

Together, they form one of the most cohesive and refreshing units in contemporary death metal, a trio whose musicianship is as sharp as their musical identity.

FERNANDA LIRA: The Voice And Venom Of Crypta

When Fernanda Lira steps up to the mic, there is no mistaking the authority in her presence. Her guttural delivery, ferocious yet controlled, instantly sets CRYPTA apart. Combining the snarling aggression of classic death metal with a modern clarity, her voice cuts through the band’s dense sonic assault with precision.

But Lira’s role goes far beyond vocals.
Her bass lines are the glue of CRYPTA’s sound: thick, dark, and relentlessly driving. They provide a low-end punch that anchors the band’s elaborate guitar assaults. After years of fronting Nervosa, Lira’s move to CRYPTA has allowed her to push deeper into pure death metal territory, showcasing both her technical skill and her evolution as a bandleader.

Her songwriting vision, emotional expression, and leadership have helped shape CRYPTA into the powerhouse it has become.

TAINÁ BERGAMASCHI: The Architect Of Atmosphere And Precision

Standing opposite the roar of Lira’s vocals is Tainá Bergamaschi, whose guitar work brings a sense of drama, complexity, and icy precision to CRYPTA’s sonic identity.

Bergamaschi excels in crafting intricate melodic patterns that float above the violence of the rhythm section. Her riffs combine classic melodic death metal sensibilities with modern, razor-edged aggression, creating songs that are both brutal and atmospheric.

What makes Bergamaschi distinctive isn’t just her technique, it’s her attention to detail. Her phrasing, chord choices, and melodic accents add a narrative flair to CRYPTA’s compositions, enriching the emotional landscape of each track.

She gives the band its sweeping, cinematic quality, making destruction sound beautiful.

JESSICA FALCHI: The Firestarter Bringing Explosive Power

If Bergamaschi builds the architecture of CRYPTA’s sound, Jessica Falchi lights the fuse.

Joining the band with ferocious energy, Falchi quickly established herself as a guitarist with powerhouse rhythm chops and blistering technical skill. Her style is rooted deeply in old-school death metal, a storm of tremolo picking, relentless chugging, and riffs that strike with surgical brutality.

What Falchi adds is pure, unfiltered aggression.
Her playing thickens the band’s sonic wall, giving CRYPTA the impact and heaviness their music demands. When Falchi and Bergamaschi lock in together, the dual-guitar attack becomes one of the most formidable in modern metal.

Her arrival marked a new era for CRYPTA: sharper, faster, and even more devastating.

A Chemistry Forged In Fire

Individually, they are exceptional musicians.
Together, they are a force of nature.

The chemistry between Lira, Bergamaschi, and Falchi is what truly elevates CRYPTA. Their ability to blend technicality with emotion, rawness with sophistication, and brutality with melody has made the band stand out in a genre where authenticity matters most.

CRYPTA’s albums, driven by this trio’s synergy, showcase a band not just performing death metal, but advancing it.

Leading The Charge In A New Generation Of Extreme Metal

In an era where metal is evolving rapidly, CRYPTA represents the future: diverse, virtuosic, fearless, and rooted in passion rather than convention.

Jessica Falchi brings the fire.
Tainá Bergamaschi brings the vision.
Fernanda Lira brings the voice, and the power.

Together, they have transformed CRYPTA into one of the most thrilling and important acts in modern death metal.

And they’re only getting started.
