Love Lord Worm, he's easily my favorite death metal singer. But let's not forget the true star of Cryptopsy, Flo!

[@petesorensenguitar]

"the true star"? Are you fucking joking? Lord Worm was the essence of Cryptopsy.

[@scotthansen3805]

6Vital6Remains6 Yeesh, sorry vital; we're all friends here. As I said, Lord Worm was an awesome vocalist. And also no, Cryptopsy probably will never be the same without him. My point was that Flo Mounier, even alongside Lord Worm, stood out among metal musicians, and easily as one of the best drummers of the genre.

[@morbidxoneq2013]

6Vital6Remains6 bitch please. Jon Levasseur.

[@GamerWordDotNet]

The true Prima donna of Cryptopsy, Flo!

[@robertstan298]

All these comments only serve to take from the fact that metal (for it's most part) IS A GROUP EFFORT. And I fucking hate people worshiping (usually) only the vocalist, who more often than not, only those the vocals, no lyrics, no writing of the music, no off-instrument, just fucking vocals. Most of the time even being artificially and arbitrarily called "lead" of the band. Sounds like the fucking retarded 80s trends of groupies. But other than that, yeah, Flo Mounier and Lord Worm are fucking law in this context.

[@embassyhotel]

This band is so friggen awesome. & i'm very proud to say that CRYPTOPSY is %100 Canadian!! I just like "Mr.Lord Worm" back on stage with the mighty CRYPTOPSY where he belongs. It's just not the same without him. This new kid they got is alright but you can't beat "Lord Worm" man, his total stage presence with that long black trench coat & leather pants & gloves just makes the total stage show even more evil. I can't wait to see Cryptopsy live in London,Ontario on Dec.10th.2013 at The APK. Gonna be an insane show in such a small venue.

[@Misanthropic-Genocide]

The last good record. Once Lord Worm left, it all went downhill. I remember watching this on Much Loud when I was 12 or 13, then I got to meet the band at an autograph signing a few months later. I told Flo how big an impact the video had on me - it was some of my first exposure to death metal.

[@BittersweetDuality]

The Unspoken King is the only bad release after this one. Self-titled is one of their best albums and the two EPs and As Gomorrah Burns kick ass as well. Idk why people act like one album made the band indefinitely irredeemable.

Besides- he’s got a ship of Theseus to run.
