Cryptopsy
Montreal's Cryptopsy are among the most technically fearsome and influential bands in death metal history, forging a hyper-brutal and labyrinthine style since their 1988 formation that set the template for extreme technical death metal. Their 1996 masterpiece None So Vile — featuring the inhuman drumming of Flo Mounier and the bestial vocals of Lord Worm — is universally regarded as a genre-defining classic, a merciless and structurally intricate record that remains the gold standard of brutal death metal more than three decades after its release.
