"One of the standout grindcore/death metal bands of the end of 80's, Carcass gained notoriety for their liberal use of medical terms in their lyrics and song titles (in fact, it was reported by reliable sources that the band members were med students, which wasn't true). Necroticism and Heartwork are most frequently considered the band's best work, delivering brutal death metal with a high degree of musicianship. The band ended on a down note, however, with the release of Swansong -- the move to a more conventional metal sound". BNR Metal pages
Did you know that Carcass appeared in Red Dwarf in `Timeslides` playing Listers band `Smeg and the Heads`.  |
BEOWULF: Ah, Carcass. Blasts beats, medical encyclopaedia lyrics, clinical-sounding difficult-to-remember songtitles. They're my boys. Besides "Tools Of The Trade", "Heartwork" & their 1st album both kick ass!! In fact, I'll look for the Earache website now. They might have some MP3s of their classic Death Metal shit.
