\"\"<\/a>Indian old-school metal band Kryptos have announced a summer Europe tour, including an appearance at Wacken Open Air, and are celebrating their 15th anniversary this year. Below is the press release issued by them:<\/p>\n

A decade and a half. Who would have thought it would get this far? This year Kryptos completes its fifteenth year of existence and there are absolutely no signs of slowing down. 1998 now seems like a long time ago, probably had some pterodactyls flying about as well but we\u2019ve weathered every shit storm that\u2019s come our way since then and here we are in 2013, fatter, uglier and with most of our hair intact but still piling on the leather in unholy temperatures all around the country and bringing our metal to the masses.<\/p>\n

To mark this monumental feat we\u2019re pulling out all the stops this year and going for the jugular. This May we will put on a mammoth gig to celebrate the last 15 years that will see us play material from all our albums to date as well as a special set with some of our good friends and booze hounds from Bangalore and elsewhere. It\u2019s going to be an epic night of unadulterated metal where we will bang heads and raise the devil horns with our long time supporters and metal brothers.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t end there though. In July we hit Europe once again and return to magnificent Germany for a month long festival tour that will see us play at the In Flammen Open Air once again, followed by the killer Ragnarock Open Air as well as a one off festival appearance in Norway and Aschaffenburg with more dates to be added in the coming months.<\/p>\n

But the big daddy of them all will be our very first appearance at Wacken Open Air 2013. When we started this band we didn\u2019t think we\u2019d even get past the bedroom we practiced in but fifteen years later we\u2019re going to be playing at the biggest metal festival on the planet in front of tens of thousands of people alongside many of the bands we grew up listening to. Surreal doesn\u2019t even begin to describe it.<\/p>\n

So here\u2019s to the last fifteen years and the next fifteen and beyond. Major thanks and cheers to everyone who supported us and still support us and a huge round of cheers to our manager Salman for his relentless work ethic behind the scenes, Miriam & Enno for all her fantastic support and our label AFM Records Germany for their belief in us. We\u2019ve outlasted every \u2018flavor of the month\u2019 douchebag that put us down or said we were \u2018irrelevant\u2019 and would never last. Well we\u2019re still standing with a cigarette in our hands and a middle finger in your face.<\/p>\n

Rock hard, Ride free \\m\/
\nCheers fuckers!<\/p>\n
