Cryptopsy is a Canadian death metal band from Montreal, formed in 1988, initially consisting of drummer Mike Atkin, guitarist Steve Thibault, and vocalist Dan "Lord Worm' Greening. The band are regarded as one of the most significant acts in Technical Death Metal and Brutal Death Metal, with their second album None So Vile today regarded as an influential cult classic in the death metal underground.

The band initially formed under the name Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, releasing numerous demos before eventually renaming to Cryptospy and releasing their debut album, Blasphemy Made Flesh, followed by their second album, None So Vile. The band continue to record and release music, so far having released nine albums, two EPs, and a live album.
