5.0 out of 5 stars Tour of the Ages, October 6, 2003

This review is from: None So Live (Audio CD)

I saw this tour in Chicago, Illinois at the House of Blues and it was just as crushing and amazing there as it is on this disc recorded live in Montreal. Cryptopsy is simply a phenomenal, devastating experience live, and this album truly shows that. This is perhaps the definitive live album for hyper-technical death metal, except maybe until Origin releases something trying to rival 'None So Live.'

Not only do you get to hear Cryptopsy, but they play all of the best songs from each album and Martin Lacroix certainly displays a vicious vocal sound. He's the perfect blend of Lord Worm's unintelligible, inhuman howls and DiSalvo's brutal vocal precision. Lacroix's immitation of Lord Worm on the parts that really need it shines, and he's at least as good if not better than DiSalvo on tracks like 'Cold Hate, Warm Blood.'

If you're a fan of Cryptopsy and want the true live experience without having to be there, you need this album!

5.0 out of 5 stars Speed Death, November 15, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: None So Live (Audio CD)

Normally I'm not a big fan of Live albums, I just don't like their sound compared to studio recorded ones. However, this is a big exception. If you're even a slight fan of death metal, you will love Cryptopsy. Their live performance is incredible. When I heard the original "Slit your Guts" I couldn't believe the guitar and double bass drum parts. On "None so Live", they play it even faster! Crytopsy's speed and syncronization is absolutely insane. Even if you already have these songs on the original cd's, buy this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Live Recording, June 6, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: None So Live (Audio CD)

I was fortunate enough to see Cryptopsy on this tour in Atlanta. I definitely think Martin is the future of Cryptopsy. I was never really impressed with Lord Worm, and felt DiSalvo had a very powerful voice, but not quite that Death Metal feel. LaCroix definitely bridges that gap! Recording the album in their hometown was very wise as you can tell the crowd was there to see them and not Krisiun. This is a superior live album! If you're a Cryptopsy fan, you probably already have it. If not, this is a good place to start to see which other albums you need to purchase!...
