Hypocrisy is a death metal band from Sweden. It was formed in 1990 in Stockholm, Sweden by Peter Tägtgren. The lyrics in their early stages were anti-Christian and Satanic, but are now focused on lyrical themes such as the paranormal and extraterrestrial. The band's style has drifted from a traditional death metal sound on their early albums, to a more blackened death metal sound later on. Their latest album, Virus, contains lyrics of a more typical death metal nature, dealing with violence, insanity, war, drug addiction, and emotional struggles.

Biography
After spending three years in Fort Lauderdale, Florida[1] in 1990, founder Peter Tägtgren returned to his homeland of Sweden to form his own band. Hypocrisy's early releases were noted as being well-executed death metal, but panned for not being particularly innovative. That criticism waned as the band matured and evolved a more unique sound and introspective lyrical approach. Later releases have a more atmospheric sound, with lyrical exploration of aliens and abduction experiences. Their latest release, Virus, has seen the band return to more typical death metal themes.
