- Krypteria【 4 albums 48 lyrics 】
- Krypteria is a symphonic power metal/gothic metal band from Aachen, Germany. Originating from a 2001 'pop musical theatre studio project' of the same name, the idea was to use different vocalists, though German-Korean singer Ji-In Cho assumed the role of lead vocalist in 2004. One self-titled studio album was released under this moniker (later edited and re-released as Liberatio). The group went on hiatus in 2012 and later reformed as And Then She Came in 2016.
History
In 2001 the future Krypteria members (Chris Siemons and S.C. Kuschnerus) worked together to record a fantasy-musical CD. There was no vocalist at that time, because they wanted to record the CD with many different voices. In 2003, the album Krypteria was released. Approximately one year later, in 2004 a tsunami occurred in India and the German TV station RTL asked them to re-record the song 'Liberatio' as a benefit single. Ji-In Cho, was chosen as the lead vocalist for the song and Sony/BMG, decided to re-release an edited version of their first album under the same name.
In 2004, from that project, Krypteria the band was officially born. Although Siemons and Kuschnerus played a leading role in the recording of the album Liberatio, the band does not consider it an official release. A year later their 'true' first album, In Medias Res, was released.
Krypteria's second recording was the EP entitled Evolution Principle, released in 2006. A review by the German edition of Metal Hammer marked it as an important release of contemporary gothic metal in Germany.
On January 19, 2007, Krypteria released their second full-length studio album entitled Bloodangel's Cry. The title comes from the track 'The Night All Angels Cry'' lyrics.
In early 2008, the band announced that they were working on their third studio album My Fatal Kiss. The album was released first in Germany on August 28, 2009, then in the rest of Europe on January 29.
The band's fourth studio album All Beauty Must Die was released on April 22, 2011 on the band's own label Liberatio Music. Peaking on position 24 in the German Media Control Charts it is Krypteria's most successful release so far.
It was announced in 2012 that the band would be going on hiatus due to Ji-In's pregnancy.
