Ludvika, Sweden (1990 – present)
Hypocrisy’s first demo was recorded entirely by Tägtgren himself; once it secured him a record deal, he recruited a lineup of Masse Broberg (Vocals), Jonas Österberg (Guitar), Mikael Hedlund (Bass) and Lars Szöke (Drums), while he himself settled on guitar. This lineup released “Penetralia in 1992, upon which point Österberg left the group. “Obsculum Obscenum” appeared in 1993, and Broberg subsequently departed as well, with Tägtgren assuming vocal duties. Thus reconstituted as a power trio, Hypocrisy began to hit its stride, recording The Fourth Dimension (1994), Abducted (1996), and “The Final Chapter” (1997); in the meantime, Tägtgren developed an alternate career as a producer, working with bands like Dimmu Borgir, Immortal and Dark Funeral. Hypocrisy officially disbanded following the release of “The Final Chapter”; however, fan interest persuaded Tägtgren to reconsider the breakup, and the live album “Hypocrisy Destroys Wacken 1998” was released in early 1999 as a precursor of things to come. The new album “Hypocrisy” followed shortly thereafter and “Into The Abyss” was released in mid-2000.

AinfectionS true masters of death metal!
-
Dulet >swedish >death metal Oh wow, so original.
-
MaorHaGever @ OBLIVIONxSPAWN so does Tamed (Filled With Fear) and Solar Empire have a very sci-fi theme to them.
-
Iconochasm Meat and potatoes death metal. The live DVD is awesome, the whole thing is on youtube.
-
Rister68 The self titled album is where it's at..
-
OBLIVIONxSPAWN They still do include some Alien themed songs on their albums. Take "No Tomorrow" and "Global Domination" off of ATOED for instance.
-
SK-Futhark this band needs to return to singing about aliens...last couple of albums, what I have heard anyway, are little disappointing...What I have heard of Arrival and Abducted is great though...I do love the self titled in places, but it just has some slow, miserable tracks which break the flow a bit...prefer the meaty groovy tracks on there like Fractured Milennium...

ArachnidMoon i love aliens :O

kalmametallinen I didn't find ATOED boring at all, but it's all just a matter of taste, I guess. [3]

lord_sval If Virus didn't have such shitty fucking production, I'd probably love it even more than I do now

Xenthrax What's wrong in having Virus as yo' favorite album? It's a matter of opinion.

OBLIVIONxSPAWN
I don't think I could accurately rank all of Hypocrisy's albums, but if I was going to put The Final Chapter and Abducted that high up on my list I would definitely be including the Self Titled right there with them.
