Cryptopsy is a Canadian death metal band from Montreal. Founded in 1988, the band initially consisted of drummer Mike Atkin, guitarist Steve Thibault, and vocalist Dan "Lord Worm" Greening. The band initially formed in 1988 under the name Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, releasing numerous demos before disbanding and reforming with new members Dave Galea and Flo Mounier in 1991, eventually renaming to Cryptopsy and releasing their debut album, Blasphemy Made Flesh, followed by their second album, None So Vile, which is regarded as an influential cult classic in the death metal underground. To date the band have released nine albums, two EPs, and a live album.
