Another Line-up Change!

With regret, but also in a time of exciting progress within the band, we are announcing another change to our line-up: Tommaso (keyboards) is leaving the band effective immediately. As of now, we have no plans to look for a replacement and will continue Krampus without a keyboard player.
We are currently in the midst of some really exciting songwriting, and we can’t wait to share the results with you later this year!

Read Tommaso’s statement in his own words:

“A few weeks ago I’ve decided not to continue my collaboration with Krampus. It was neither a simple decision nor taken light hearted but it was the moment for me to move on and focus on my studies and personal life. I wanna thank all you guys for the extraordinary support throughout all these years and for this amazing experience. I wish all the luck to the guys in the band and all the success that can get!
Fear the Krampus!”

 

New Drummer!

We are very happy to announce the addition of an extremely talented musician to our ranks:
Drummer Hati Refaeli, currently of Equilibrium fame, has joined the Italian metal act Krampus as a full member in early 2013. Both band and management are very excited to add such a talented drummer to the mix, particularly at this point in time: Songwriting for a new album is in full gear, and the band is undergoing musical changes that will both elevate Krampus to the next level and pose a challenge to its eight band members. 

Hati comments: 

“I’m very happy and excited to join forces with this talented and very promising group of young muchachos… I hope that this cooperation will bear fruits and that more people will enjoy the killer tunes Krampus has to offer….”

And frontman Filippo adds: 

“We are very happy to have Hati with us, he’s an amazing drummer with a great style and a friend. We are sure he’ll fit the team perfectly! He’ll bring some fresh air and professional experience alongside his great attitude!”

Krampus is set to play several shows in Europe later this year (to be announced shortly), before entering the studio for the second time in two years. 

You’ve been wondering what Krampus has been up to the last few weeks?

We’re very happy to report that we are already working on the songwriting of our next album! We’ll focus 100% on writing the best songs we can, and will keep you up to date on our progress.

Back From Heidenfest!

We have just wrapped up our very first European tour, returning from the run with Wintersun, Korpiklaani, Varg & Trollfest after a final night in Antwerp, Belgium yesterday. We really would like to thank our session drummer Aleksandar Veselinovic from Despite Exile, all the bands that shared the stage with us, the crew and of course you guys that attended to our shows, you’re fucking amazing!

Line-up Change!

With one laughing and one crying eye we have to announce that our drummer Carlo has left Krampus effective immediately. He has, in fact, been struck by lightning and considers himself lucky to not have gotten hurt worse. He is ok, but will not be able to play the drums for some time to come. Carlo is a great friend of us and we would like to thank him for the great effort and dedication he has hadfor the band. We wish him good and full recovery and all the best for his future endeavours.

The good news is that we are already working on a replacement, and will have exciting news to announce sooner rather than later. One hint for now: He’s a very talented musician, and you have most likely already heard of him with his current band!

Making Of “Survival Of The Fittest”

We have uploaded a making of video of our brand new album “Survival Of The Fittest” for you!

The album has been released on August 24th and has so far received overwhelming reactions from both our fans and the press. We are very much looking forward to present it live at this year’s Heidenfest tour!
