Background information about 'Out of the Garden (Re-Release)'

There are albums that demand your attention the moment they hit the speakers, and Crypt Sermon's Out of the Garden is exactly that kind of record. From the first crushing riff to the last soaring vocal line, this Philadelphia outfit delivers epic doom metal that feels both timeless and utterly vital. Brooks Wilson's voice is the kind of instrument that stops you dead in your tracks — powerful, dramatic, and carrying the weight of ancient cathedrals in every note. The band weaves together towering riffs, melancholic melodies, and a sense of grandeur that few in the genre can match.

What makes Out of the Garden so special is how it balances heaviness with genuine beauty. The songs breathe — there's space between the thunderous doom passages where delicate guitar work and Hammond organ shimmer through, creating an atmosphere that's as much Candlemass as it is classic 70s hard rock. The rhythm section of Enrique Sagarnaga (drums) and Frank Chin (bass) lays down a foundation that's both muscular and nimble, allowing the twin-guitar attack of James Lipczynski and Steve Jansson to explore territories both crushingly heavy and surprisingly tender. Tracks like Heavy Riders and The Will of the Ancient Call showcase a band that understands dynamics on a cellular level — knowing exactly when to pummel and when to pull back and let the emotion breathe. The production is warm and organic, capturing the live energy of a band that sounds like they've been playing together for decades.
