The new and reformed Melbourne metalcore outfit Villa Morta are debuting their brutal sound and inspired vision with the brand new single “Cryptex“. “Cryptex” is the first to drop from the upcoming ‘Subvert‘ EP out July 23 and welcomes a physical journey to seek answers and reap a reward.

“Cryptex” joins the big leagues taking mix and mastering credits from Lance Prenc (Alpha Wolf, Polaris, Gravemind), teaming up with Colin Jeffs for a dark and inquisitive film clip to compliment the new single.

Villa Morta guitarist, vocalist and creative mastermind Masa Myer explains: “Cryptex is a comment on religion and the people who are obsessed and consumed by a final answer rather than the journey and the mystery of the never ending unknown.“

Villa Morta intend to continue exploring these themes and ideas in their message and vision, while in conjunction pushing their musical sound into new territories.

“Cryptex” will be available everywhere tomorrow, Friday May 14. ‘Subvert’ will be available Friday July 23.
