Our Take
Our Take
CARCASS have returned from the dead (pun intended) with their latest EP, "Despicable". This four-track offering is a gruesome delight for fans of the legendary British death metal band.
From the opening riff of "The Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue", it's clear that CARCASS haven't lost their touch when it comes to delivering brutal and technical metal. The guitar work is razor-sharp, the drums are thunderous, and Jeff Walker's vocals sound as guttural as ever.
"Under the Scalpel Blade" showcases CARCASS at their most ferocious, with blast beats galore and a riff that will leave you headbanging until your neck aches. The band's ability to seamlessly blend melody with sheer brutality is on full display here.
On "Slaughtered in Soho", CARCASS slow things down a bit, allowing their groove to take center stage. The song is a relentless assault on the senses, with some of the most crushing riffs on the EP.
Closing track "The Long and Winding Bier Road" is a perfect way to end the album, with its haunting atmosphere and epic guitar solos.
Overall, "Despicable" is a solid addition to CARCASS's discography and a must-listen for any metal fan. It's grim, it's gory, and it's absolutely glorious.

About the artist
Carcass
Carcass, the legendary British extreme metal band known for their brutal blend of death metal and grindcore, have been ripping eardrums apart since the late 1980s. With their visceral lyrics and blistering riffs, Carcass have solidified their status as pioneers in the metal scene. Fronted by the dynamic duo of Jeff Walker on vocals and bass, and Bill Steer on guitar, Carcass have a sound that is as distinctive as it is crushing. Their 1991 album "Necroticism – Descanting the Insalubrious" is often hailed as a classic in the genre, showcasing their technical prowess and unrelenting ferocity. But don't let their intense sound fool you – Carcass have a sardonic sense of humour that shines through in their lyrics and stage banter. Their tongue-in-cheek approach to gore and violence sets them apart from their peers and adds an unexpected layer of depth to their music. In recent years, Carcass have continued to push boundaries and defy expectations. Their 2020 album "Torn Arteries" is a testament to their enduring creativity and musical evolution. With tracks that range from blistering speed to haunting melody, Carcass show no signs of slowing down. Whether you're a die-hard metalhead or a casual listener looking to expand your horizons, Carcass are a band that demands attention. Their unique blend of aggression and wit makes them a force to be reckoned with in the world of heavy music. So crank up the volume, brace yourself for impact, and let Carcass take you on a wild, headbanging journey.
