Cypecore is a German melodic death metal band from Mannheim. They were formed in 2007 and have released four independent studio albums.^[7] All of these were conceptual albums based upon a narrative of futuristic, post-apocalyptic warfare, set in a hypothetical 22nd century. The band describe their musical style as "brutal, martial but still melodic", and refer to their own live performances as military "operations".^[8]
