The project itself is new, but the musicians behind it have spent combined decades honing their skills and perfecting their vision. Crypt Sermon features members of Ashencult, Hivelords, Infiltrator, Trenchrot, and Labyrinthine. Drawing heavily upon Solitude Aeturnus, Candlemass, Mercyful Fate, and Dio-era Black Sabbath, Crypt Sermon amalgamizes the absolute best of traditional heavy metal and doom metal. Its members focus on excellent musicianship and well-crafted songs. They truly care about writing heavy riffs and killer solos - not just tuning their guitars low. On February 24, 2015, the band will release their debut-full length, Out of the Garden, on CD/LP/digital format through Dark Descent once more. The breathtaking cover art was painted by the band's vocalist Brooks Wilson. The Obelisk praised the band's "shred-prone doom, given to the trenchant atmospherics of The Gates of Slumber or a rawer Magic Circle, while No Clean Singing noted, "The mainly mid-paced music is anchored by huge, burly, infectious riffs and a bone-breaking rhythm section, and the dark melodies are as hook-filled as they are atmospheric. Each song also features screaming, white-hot guitar solos that light up the music like phosphorus flares." Dead Rhetoric wrote, simply, that "Philadelphia's Crypt Sermon are the clear-cut, unabashed definition of what an epic doom metal band should be."
