Until There’s Nothing Left The lines have been set Now I sit back and wait Eager for somebody To come and take the bait The net is wide Spread across the web I must confide That it's the wait I dread This illusion that I cast Has been stewing Your greed for pleasure is too vast And will be your undoing Finally I get a hit Now this is when I get excited My mouth then begins to drip The fire in my loins ignited The trap is set The filthy one Will be surprised As I become The only one Lust has now trapped you here I'm the one you were told to fear My lies have you intertwined Within this cage And as you now can clearly see You're totally mine There is only true pleasure When one suffers More than the other Interlaced within your mind Untruthfulness has you contained within my hive My silky velvet words have you confined Until there' s absolutely nothing left At all for me to gain Once you finally realize It is too late I'll have already moved on I cut the strings and watch you fall I jeer as panic takes over I giggle as you start to bawl The final steps of this horrific Hostile torturous acquisition I skim through bare skinned images of you in weird poses I marvel at how easily I got you to spread open

about

A person spends all day building a machine, only for it to torture them all through the night. As if that wasn’t twisted enough, they like it. In fact, they like being tortured so much that, come morning, they wake up rejuvenated, eager to tweak the machine until it runs perfectly in their mind.
This is the nocturnal vision that inspired CRYPTOPSY’s ninth full-length nightmare. “Beware the spotlight”, warns vocalist Matt McGachy before “Dead Eyes Replete” flashes before your eyes with a skull crushing breakdown. ‘An Insatiable Violence’ mirrors our toxic relationship with social media, but while eerily prescient, the album is influenced by the many mutations that have defined the band’s Hall of Fame discography. Inspired by a mukbang gone horribly wrong, ravenous opener “The Nimis Adoration” is a smorgasbord of gut-busting blasts, Christian Donaldson’s fishhook riffs and a heavy helping of pit-pleasing groove.
CRYPTOPSY recognize that not every brutal technical death metal band sticks around long enough to win a Canadian Grammy 30 years into their career. The cover for ‘An Insatiable Violence’ was created by the late, great Martin Lacroix, who would growl with unholy delight over the freshly fetid depths of McGachy’s false chord scream. Another former vocalist returns on “Embrace the Nihility” to stomp out any whispering doubts of his supremacy. But despite having claimed the crown as the most vile band in death metal on only their second stab in the studio, CRYPTOPSY are still pushing the limits of extremity.
The album’s lead single bumps and grinds to the oddball bounce of Olivier Pinard’s gruesome bass slaps - and yet, at its core “Until There’s Nothing Left” stakes its claim as CRYPTOPSY’s biggest earworm. Even Flo Mounier – who literally wrote the book on extreme metal drumming – has honed new techniques to keep the blasphemy of ‘An Insatiable Violence’ fresh. For its finishing move, “Malicious Needs” slithers to a crawl before ascending like a bat into a blackened cloud of smoke.
Bow to the new vileness from extreme metal royalty.
