Death metal juggernaut Cryptopsy have announced their comeback with the upcoming release of their new album As Gomorrah Burns. It’s the first full-length record from Cryptopsy in over a decade. The album will be released on September 8 through Nuclear Blast Records.
Vocalist Matt McGachy shares his thoughts on the impending record:
“I’m excited to finally unveil ‘As Gomorrah Burns.’ It’s an album that we have been crafting for the past five years, a meticulous endeavor that we are proud of. It’s the perfect medley of old school Cryptopsy with a few modern twists. We’ve leaned heavily into the grooves and let some of the riffs breathe just a little more than we have on the past few releases. I’m really stoked about the new era of Cryptopsy”
In advance of the upcoming release, the band have released a new track off of the album titled “In Abeyance” accompanied by a music video.

McGachy adds about the new single:
“‘In Abeyance’ is conceptually about feeling isolated while being submerged in a new environment. The hunt for a sense of belonging while mourning a previous life. Musically, it’s a slap in the face. It’s a banger that appears to be straightforward yet remains ultra complex.”
Cryptopsy will also play in an upcoming fall headlining “Carnival Of Death” tour of North America in support of the new album. Dates will be announced soon.
