FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Matt McGachy of Cryptopsy Talks An Insatiable Violence, 30 Years of None So Vile, and the 2026 Decibel Tour
Death metal fans, get readyâMatt McGachy of Cryptopsy tore into an exclusive interview on The Zach Moonshine Show at Metal Devastation Radio, giving listeners a front-row seat to the past, present, and future of one of death metalâs most extreme bands.
From the crushing new album An Insatiable Violence to the upcoming 2026 Decibel Magazine Tour, Matt delivered insight, humor, and exclusives that fans wonât want to miss.
A Year of Extreme Metal Chaos
Reflecting on the past year, Matt said: âOur European tour with 200 Stab Wounds and Fury and Corpse Pile celebrating the 30th anniversary of None So Vileâ31 shows in 31 days, 15 sold outâwas insane. Death metal is alive and thriving. Itâs nonstop energy, everywhere we go.â
Highlights included back-to-back shows in Tokyo, long-awaited performances in Australia, and crushing U.S. dates with Nile. Matt emphasized how fan energy fuels the band: âEvery show is a gift. After everything thatâs happened in the past few years, I try to appreciate every moment, every fan, and every stage. Thatâs what keeps us going.â
Legacy Meets Relevance
Cryptopsy isnât just living in their legacy. Landing a second cover with Decibel Magazine in under a year proves the band remains vital in extreme metal.
âDecibel has always been a beacon for extreme music. To be featured again shows that Cryptopsy is more than just a legacy bandâweâre relevant, weâre still extreme, and weâre still evolving,â Matt said.
The bandâs Juno Award nomination for An Insatiable Violence also underscores their impact. âUnlike the Grammys, the Junos actually recognize extreme metal. Thatâs huge for us,â he added.
Exclusive: Cryptopsyâs Next-Level Decibel Tour
Matt dropped an exclusive on the 2026 Decibel Tour: Cryptopsy is stepping up production like never before. A permanent lighting designer and a full visual stage experience will transform their shows.
âWe want fans to leave saying, âWhat did I just witness?ââ Matt said. While theyâll honor None So Vile, the band is mixing in new material to create a balanced set that celebrates both legacy and current work.
âWe are more than a legacy band. We respect the legacy, but weâre creating something alive and current,â he emphasized.
Fans, Phones, and All-Ages Shows
Matt also discussed fan interaction, technology at live shows, and the importance of all-ages concerts:
âThese kids have the stamina to pit through an entire set, and itâs amazing to see the next generation of metalheads embracing the scene.â
He even shared a hilarious on-stage moment: grabbing a fanâs phone mid-song and screaming into it. âIt turns a moment of distraction into a memory for life,â he said.
Looking Forward
From celebrating 30 years of None So Vile to touring the U.S. and Canada, Cryptopsy is proving death metal isnât just musicâitâs an experience. Fans can catch them on the Decibel Tour and at the Metal and Beer Fest in Philly, complete with an exclusive craft beer collab from Atlanta.
âWe want fans to have a sensory, unforgettable experience. Thatâs what the 2026 Decibel Tour is all about,â Matt promised.
