None So Vile is the legendary second album by Cryptopsy, released on the now defunct Wrong Again Records. The album was later re-issued by Displeased Records and Century Media Records.

The album now has a considerable reputation within the death metal genre; along with Suffocation's Pierced From Within, many^{[weasel words]} credit it with revitalizing the genre during the mid-90s and adding an unprecedented influence on the technical death metal and brutal death metal subgenres.^{[citation needed]}

It is the first album to feature bassist Eric Langois and the last album to feature vocalist Lord Worm, until his return on 2005's Once Was Not.

The cover artwork is a painting of Herodias With the Head of John the Baptist by Elisabetta Sirani.

The album starts with a sample from the The Exorcist III: Legion movie and ends with a sample from Evil Dead III: Army of Darkness.

Metalstorm.ee ranks the album number 91 on their list of top 100 metal albums.^[1]
