I wanted to upload something from my CD collection that a lot of people probably actually don't have so here we go. This is from the reissue of Carcass' magnum opus "Heartwork," originally released in 1993. Re-released in 1998 with remastered tracks, a DVD with in-the-studio stuff and discussing the H.R. Giger art custom-made for this release, Michael Amott's departure, vegetarianism, Parr Street Studios (which is the reason for the long release name), and other stuff. Interesting if you are a fanboy. The Parr Street Studio demo material is great, though. You hear all the tracks from "Heartwork" in often slower tempos, some with different guitar solos. The track listing is different but beyond that it's not wildly different. If you want to see how these 17-18 year old songs were birthed then perfected for the album, take a listen.

These Youtube previews of the songs are AWFUL quality, the actual demo recordings are actually much, much better.

Carcass - Necroticism - Descanting The Insalubrious (1991)

From Wikipedia: It could be described as a concept album, as many of the tracks describe economical ways to dispose of dead bodies ("Pedigree Butchery", for example, proposes that dead humans be turned into pet food, "Carneous Cacoffiny" proposes to use human body parts as musical instruments and in "Inpropagation" human remains are used as fertilizer).

If you were young and read the lyrics, they just sounded confusing and foreign and "too smart," but as a much older person now... it's about the same. The musical direction is changed from their pretty straightforward grind sound to a more uniform death metal with some memorable guitar solos and the familiar grind sound still there. Incredible even after multiple listens in one session!

Michael Amott on guitar went on to form the much celebrated and incredibly dumb Arch Enemy (I'll admit I like their material up to "Burning Bridges"). Amott formed the band with Johan Liiva in 1996 after they disbanded Carnage in 1990, the other members of Carnage went on to make side awesome band Dismember a full on project.
