PROGRESSIVE METAL | CINEMATIC | CONCEPTUAL

Launched in 2023, TRYPTAMAX is the original progressive metal project of guitarist and producer Thiago Campos. A culmination of decades of musical evolution, TRYPTAMAX blends cinematic atmosphere, intricate arrangements, and emotionally charged lyrics.

​

The debut single, “The Empty”, marked the project's bold arrival — showcasing Thiago’s multi-instrumental skills, songwriting, production, and visual direction.

​

Though primarily a solo endeavor, the project also features guest collaborators such as Will Shaw (vocals), best known for his role in VRA’s most popular Dream Theater Split-Screen Cover, Metropolis Pt. 1.

​

TRYPTAMAX is a vessel for immersive storytelling, complex musical landscapes, and genre-defying expression — where progressive metal meets visionary production.
