Source-derived summary

Crypta is a Brazilian death metal band from São Paulo, formed in 2019. Vocalist and bassist Fernanda Lira, drummer Luana Dametto, and guitarists Tainá Bergamaschi and Sonia Nusselder founded the band. The current lineup comprises Lira, Dametto, Bergamaschi, and guitarist Victoria Villarreal, who joined as a touring musician in 2025 before becoming a permanent member in 2026. Guitarist Jéssica di Falchi, a former band member, had also joined as a touring musician. Prior to forming Crypta, Lira and Dametto were in thrash metal band Nervosa.

History

Formation

On 25 April 2020, after straining their professional relationship, Fernanda Lira and Luana Dametto left the band Nervosa. The following month, on 20 May, they announced that they had formed a death metal band, the style they most identify with, called Crypta. They completed the line-up with guitarists Sonia Anubis (ex-Burning Witches) and Tainá Bergamaschi (ex-Hagbard). Despite the announcement, the band was formed a year earlier in June 2019. On 16 June, Napalm Records announced that they would release the band's debut album.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as brazilian death metal band. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 25, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q106617728. The first chronological checks are 2019, 2025, 2026 and 2020.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
