Step inside the chaos of a freezing Saturday night in London, where the O2 Academy Islington was transformed into a hotbed of technical precision and raw aggression. Our gallery captures the high-velocity energy of Cryptopsy’s 30th-anniversary celebration of “None So Vile”, featuring the legendary Flo Mounier behind the kit and Matt McGachy’s commanding stage presence.

Beyond the headliners, we documented the sheer intensity of the support acts: from the politically charged, heavy-hitting slams of Texas’ Corpse Pile, to the intricate “conducted” technicality of Inferi, and the sweat-soaked, non-stop crowd surfing that defined 200 Stab Wounds‘ standout set.
