Crystal Viper was founded and has been led by vocalist, bassist and guitarist Marta Gabriel. Their latest studio album ‘The Silver Key’ was promoted live throughout Europe via extensive touring and at major Summer festivals such as Wacken Open Air or Hellfest. While due to Marta’s presence the band is very often compared to female fronted acts, Crystal Viper style is deeply rooted in Heavy and Power Metal forged by legends such as IRON MAIDEN or JUDAS PRIEST.

‘The Silver Key’ concept was 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’ (2021). Admittedly, the band’s most intense studio album, it received a roaring response from the press worldwide and included Bathory and Misfits covers as bonus tracks. Crystal Viper is now proud to release their live debut album entitled ‘The Live Quest’. It was recorded during last year’s ‘The Silver Key Tour’ in Poland, Germany, Austria, Denmark, Italy, France, Belgium and Czech Republic. ‘The Live Quest’ delivers a high level of energy and heaviness. It offers an uncompromising live recording with it’s perfectly balanced blend of rawness and precision. Thanks to it’s blazing guitars, pounding drums, thunderous bass and commanding vocals, every track hits harder and becomes a new bruiser of Heavy Metal authority. Cover artwork by Mario Lopez for fans of : Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Helloween, Gamma Ray, Blind Guardian
