Kryptos is an Indian heavy metal band from Bangalore, Karnataka and is widely regarded as one of the pioneers of the modern Indian heavy metal movement.

Known for their high-octane blend of 80s metal, NWOBHM and thrash metal, Kryptos draws influence from bands such as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy, Coroner and Kreator. The band has released seven studio albums and has toured extensively across Europe and Asia.

In 2013, Kryptos became the first Indian heavy metal band to perform at Wacken Open Air, one of the world’s largest metal festivals.
