The Mexican Death Metal scene has found a new force of nature in Decrypter, a band blending the ferocity of Death Metal with the cold, melodic darkness of Black Metal. With their upcoming debut album Nechronicles, the band aims to carve their place in the world of extreme music, delivering a sound that is both crushing and atmospheric—an ode to cosmic horror wrapped in riffs, blast beats, and guttural fury.
Formed by Azael Pérez “Rodsix” (Vocals), Giovanny Arjona (Guitars), Enrique Tejeda (Guitars), Hugo Gutierrez (Bass), and Oscar Barrera (Drums), Decrypter have already positioned themselves as one of the most exciting new acts in the extreme metal underground. With three singles unleashed so far, they’ve showcased a unique sonic identity where melody, aggression, and atmosphere collide with breathtaking intensity.
The band’s first single, “Nymvrenaragz”, sets the stage with sheer violence and precision. From the very first crushing riffs and blast beats, the track erupts with unstoppable force. Rodsix’s vocals tear through the mix with devastating authority, while the interplay of Black Metal-inspired melodies and Death Metal brutality gives the track an unpredictable and enthralling flow. The song’s video amplifies its impact, pulling listeners deep into Decrypter’s world of chaos and dark mysticism.

With “Ophyrion,” Decrypter expand their scope, blending epic slow-tempo riffs with breakneck bursts of speed. The contrast between monumental, crushing passages and frenzied sections keeps the song dynamic and ever-evolving. Rodsix’s vocal delivery is nothing short of masterful, commanding both guttural lows and piercing screams with total control. Supported by the relentless rhythm section of Hugo and Oscar, the guitars weave an intricate tapestry of aggression and melody, turning the track into a sonic journey that commands attention from start to finish.
The third single, “Under the Roots of the Ancient,” begins with haunting clean guitar riffs, subtle cymbal textures, and a driving bass line, luring listeners into a deceptive calm before the storm. When the full band explodes into the verse, the impact is devastating. The chorus hits like a blast of pure sonic violence, balanced by carefully crafted melodic interludes. This track proves Decrypter’s ability to write music that’s both brutal and deeply atmospheric—a balance that sets them apart in today’s extreme metal scene.
