"Much of the band’s sound harks back to the Scandinavian revival of the early 2000’s, with bands like Reverend Bizarre, Spiritus Mortis, and Griftegard clearly being heavily influential, but SuuM are able to inject enough of their own ideas to prevent things from becoming clichéd...Make no mistake! “Cryptomass” is one of the finest displays of traditional doom metal for many years, and I would certainly place SuuM amongst the best doom bands to have emerged in recent times. While some say doom metal may be dead… something still stirs in the heart of the Mediterranean." - The Sludgelord"With histrionics and bombast throughout, this is a fun listen and a record that continually points towards the sense of transcendence that the group are seeking to create. While it certainly has its limitations, doom fans across the world will revel in what has been put on offer here." - Two Guys Metal Reviews released February 14, 2020 'Cryptomass' was produced by SUUM during 2018/2019 Recorded, Mixed, and Mastered by Daniele Perticaroli at Circle Music Studio in Rome, Italy.
