Corpus Delicti is a French gothic rock band active in the early-mid 1990s. In the late 1990s, the band briefly reformed as an industrial rock band called Corpus.

Two ex-Corpus Delicti members, Franck Amendola and Christophe Baudrion, later formed the rock band Press Gang Metropol. They were joined by Eric Chabaud on drums and Sébastien Pietrapiana, also an ex-Corpus Delicti member, on vocals, and released their first album in early 2012. In 2020, the original lineup of Corpus Delicti reunited and signed with Cleopatra Records, who re-released their back catalog, including a 30th Anniversary edition of their 1993 album Twilight. They started playing live again in 2022, and in November 2023, they released the new single "Chaos". For more news an information, please visit corpusdelicti.com.
