Cryptopsy to Headline the 2026 Decibel Magazine Tour
Celebrating a Milestone in Death Metal
Montréal’s own Cryptopsy is set to make waves on the 2026 Decibel Magazine Tour, marking the 30th anniversary of their iconic album, None So Vile. This tour promises a brutal experience as fans will be treated to a mix of time-honored classics alongside tracks from their latest release, An Insatiable Violence.
A Surreal Experience for Cryptopsy
Longtime vocalist Matt McGachy shared his excitement, stating, “Headlining the Decibel Tour while celebrating the 30th anniversary of None So Vile is surreal for us. That record changed everything, and getting to rip through our favorite songs from it every night—alongside a bunch of newer Cryptopsy tracks—feels like honoring where we came from while showing exactly where we are now. These shows are going to be violent, cathartic, and unforgettable.”
