Led by drumming virtuoso Flo Mounier, Cryptopsy has been pushing the boundaries of technicality and brutality since the early 90s. The Best Of Us Bleed documents their evolution from underground legends to innovators of "quebec-style" death metal, emphasizing speed, technical precision, and intense guttural vocals.
The Best Of Us Bleed is a massive, definitive 2CD, 32-track compilation covering two decades of Canadian technical death metal masters Cryptopsy. Spanning over 135 minutes, this collection bridges the gap between their raw 90s era, their mid-2000s experiments, and their 2011 "return to form" lineup. It includes rare live recordings, demo tracks, and three exclusive, blistering new studio songs that prove Cryptopsy remains a leader in extreme metal brutality.
