CARCASS

Release Year: 2013
Artist Origin: ENG
Style: fundamental extreme death/grind metal

the third, absolutely legendary album by the cult British ensemble [1991], one of the cornerstone records in history of extreme metal, also became a near-climactic moment in Carcass history, heralding a giant leap forward toward the realm of complex technical death metal: with guitar virtuoso Mike Amott [Carnage, Arch Enemy] joining the fold and bringing memorable harmonies that would eventually become a trademark of glorious ensemble, the intense and relentless yet harmonically rich material sees its brutal slaughterhouse aesthetic unfolding through more technical structures, intricate riffs, and melodic flourishes, foreshadowing even more significant progression to come, while its essential track Corporal Jigsore Quandary simply tears everything to shreds!; recent slipcase re-issue comes with sound remastered in full dynamic range, and includes five audio bonuses with two live numbers among them, recorded in Tokyo, Japan
