Singapore brutal death metal band Vrykolakas has been around since the early 1990s, yet metalheads in Singapore rarely get to see them perform at gigs. We talk to the mastermind behind Vrykolakas, Khairil, to find out why this is so...

Wow, this is so embarrassing. I've never even known the existence of Vrykolakas even though I saw its name being mentioned in liner notes of Singaporean bands. I own Era of the Apostate by Absence of the Sacred and Apocalyptic Anti-Human Annihilation by Soul Devour, saw them give their thanks to Vrykolakas, yet thought, "Oh, they are just talking about VRYKOBLAST PRODUCTIONS!!"

And I'm Singaporean myself. Fuck me. Better start checking out their material.

Never heard of them too :x Strange name though it has meaning behind it. Will check them out soon along with other Singaporean bands I've neglected.

I'll check it out sometime, nice interview. They sound kinda bland to me, but they seem quite competent.

Vrykolakas is boring and generic.
i got ''Spawned from Hellfire and Brimstone'' and its just average
Well , i hope the upcoming album will be better
