Kraanium Introduce New Vocalist Robin “Elfi” Schramm
Formed in 2001, Kraanium have spent more than two decades carving out their place as one of the defining forces in slamming brutal death metal . With six full-length albums under their belt and relentless touring across the globe, the band has built a reputation for punishing riffs, guttural vocals, and devastating live performances.
Their most recent album, Scriptures of Vicennial Defilement (2023), marked their debut release through Unique Leader Records and further cemented their legacy within the underground extreme metal scene.
Now the band moves forward with a new voice behind the microphone.
Robin “Elfi” Schramm expressed his excitement about joining the lineup:
“I’m beyond proud to be the new vocalist of Kraanium. It’s a huge honor to hit the stage with the band, tear it up live, and carry this next chapter forward together.”
The band also shared their enthusiasm about the new addition:
“Behold the new vocalist of Kraanium. After a long search, we’re excited to announce Robin ‘Elfi’ as the new guttural master. We’re pumped to have him onboard and unleash his brutality.”
