CRYPTOPSY To Debut New Material At This Weekend's Shows

April 28, 2012

Canadian extreme metallers CRYPTOPSY will debut some of their brand new material at the following shows:

April 28 - The Rockpile - Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada
April 29 - The Dominion House - Windsor, Ontario, Canada

The band states, "We will be playing some new songs from our upcoming release for the first time live in our set."

Video footage of CRYPTOPSY practicing a brand new song from their forthcoming album can be seen below.

CRYPTOPSY in January tapped bassist Olivier Pinard (NEURAXIS, VENGEFUL) as the replacement for guitarist-turned-bassist Youri Raymond.

Raymond left CRYPTOPSY in December, explaining in a statement that "it's in the best interest of both the band and I to part ways." He added, "As a musician, moving from guitar to bass was a great challenge, but honestly, I never really felt comfortable in that position and my motivation in general was stagnating."

Lead guitarist and songwriter Jon Levasseur rejoined CRYPTOPSY in May 2011.

"The Unspoken King", CRYPTOPSY's sixth full-length and first to feature new vocalist Matt McGachy, was released June 24, 2008 to a wide array of reactions. Drummer Flo Mounier explained his intention in reshaping the dynamics of the band to Decibel magazine: "I'm a fan of different sorts of music, and I think it's most fun when a band puts out an album that has elements of everything; you get this thing called diversity, not boredom. That's what we're trying to do. Still, I think people are going to be surprised how brutal this album is."
