CARCASS – Surgical Steel (2023 Reissue) – 2LP – Red with Black Splatter Vinyl

2LP – Limited Edition Red with Black Splatter Vinyl.

A seminal death metal band from Liverpool/Merseyside, UK, Carcass was founded in 1985.

Without a doubt, UK legends Carcass have released several classic albums over the years and changed the trajectory of extreme metal with each consecutive release. Whether it was inventing gore-grind (i.e. Reek of Putrefaction ) or creating the template for melodic death metal (i.e. Heartwork), Carcass has always made records by which bars were set and rules were broken. Upon their untimely demise in 1996, fans mourned the loss of the seminal act and longed that the group would one day be exhumed from their premature grave. After an 18 year hiatus, Carcass were fully reanimated and, it’s safe to say, they haven’t missed a pathological step.

With 2013’s Surgical Steel, Carcass rose to the occasion and gave fans an album that holds up to their classic repertoire, delivering another milestone in their highly influential career. In an era seemingly content to endlessly chug away at their e-strings in various rhythmic denominations, Carcass has brought the power of the riff back to a generation.
