Cryptopsy

Mihaela Petrescu

Cryptopsy, the Canadian kings of technical death metal, have announced their comeback with their first full-length album in over a decade. Titled As Gomorrah Burns, it is set to release on September 8 via Nuclear Blast Records. The first single, "In Abeyance," has been released along with a music video directed by Chris Kells

Commenting on the impending record, vocalist Matt McGachy says:

"I'm excited to finally unveil 'As Gomorrah Burns.' It's an album that we have been crafting for the past five years. A meticulous endeavor that we are proud of. It's the perfect medley of oldschool Cryptopsy with a few modern twists. We've leaned heavily into the grooves and let some of the riffs breathe just a little more than we have on the past few releases.  I'm really stoked about the new era of Cryptopsy"

McGachy adds about the new single:

"'In Abeyance' is conceptually about feeling isolated while being submerged in a new environment. The hunt for a sense of belonging while mourning a previous life. Musically, it's a slap in the face. It's a banger that appears to be straightforward yet remains ultra complex."

Cryptopsy "As Gomorrah Burns tracklisting:

1. Lascivious Undivine
2. In Abeyance
3. Godless Deceiver
4. Ill Ender
5. Flayed The Swine
6. The Righteous Lost
7. Obeisant
8. Praise The Filth

flo is the original drummer of cryptopsy. he joined the band under the old name, obsessive convulsive disorder. nobody talks about OCD, so in effect it was a new band at that point.
