Krypt // Vol. 13 / Skinlab / K*ll Trip / Witchfang—————————————————————————————————————————————————
Skinlab - is an American groove metal band hailing from the famed Bay Area of San Francisco, which has spawned numerous amazing metal bands over the years.
Bound, Gagged, and Blindfolded, the band's debut album from 1997, is widely regarded as a metal masterpiece and was reissued on vinyl for Record Store Day this year.
The band released three albums on the Century Media label in the late 1990s and 2000s, at the same time that Eyehategod, At The Gates, Paradise Lost, Turmoil, and Napalm Death were unleashing lethal soundwaves on the same label.
After the album The Scars Between Us in 2009, the band was on hiatus for a few years, after which Skinlab returned with the fantastic album Venomous in 2019, and they are now working on a new album.
In the 90s and 00s, Skinlab toured aggressively in the US with bands such as Slayer, Machine Head, Hatebreed, Fear Factory, and Crowbar, and did several tours in Europe, including with Entombed and Exodus.
The band has recently played several performances in the United States, and last year they toured Europe with Pro-Pain. This summer, Skinlab will perform at the metal event Fajtfest in the Czech Republic alongside Clawfinger and Signs of the Swamp, as well as Boringhell Fest in Denmark with Downset, Saturnus, and Swartzheim.

K*ll Trip is a sludge/hardcore band from Horsens/Odense.
The band appears to have discovered an intriguing blend of gutter-level hardcore that hits hard from the start, as well as the more sludgy metal of 90s New Orleans, which the members literally grew up with.
When it comes to their lyrical cosmos, the band's primitive wrath is centered on the deterioration of the environment. In November 2023, K*ll Trip released the dystopian album Sifting the Ashes, mixed by Frederik Uglebjerg (MØL, Galge) and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege.
The band has played shows with Hatesphere, Bersærk, Swartzheim, Eyes, Crown the Beast, Artillery, Halshug, Dying Hydra, Earn Your Scars, among others, and has performed at Copenhagen Metal Fest, Viborg Metal Festival, Boringhell Fest, and the hardcore festival Support Our Scene.
In addition, K*ll Trip is working on a new EP.

Witchfang - Emerging in 2023 from Kolding, Denmark, Witchfang blends hard rock and stoner/doom into a genre-defying sound.
Witchfang plays Occult Horror Rock, exploring the human emotions, experiences and desires. Their first single ‘Dead Rat City’ was released in the beginning of March 2025 and tells a story of a city in decay, where mutated rats are spreading disease. Followed by the single ‘Running Away From You’ from May, which was well received by critics. The music should be experienced as a story, where each song is a chapter in a bigger story, that in the end comes together as a ‘sonic movie’.
