Heartwork...One of the greatest death metal albums of all time....heavy as f**k riffs...but melodic.

 

[El Diablo]

still have one of their cd's i bought bloody years ago. Symphonies of Sickness

 

[Trollhammaren]

Interesting. Not sure how they're going to sound now that they've reformed, but I'm already seeing them twice in the next few weeks overseas at festivals so it should be cool. Plenty of bands touring here recently eh?

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Any idea what era stuff they're playing? I've seen them twice back in the day and they were good, but I'd be REALLY excited if they played stuff from the Symphonies of Sickness period as well as later stuff. A mix of stuff from the second, third and fourth albums would be killer, skip the first and last albums not so much.

Holy Frick! That's awesome! But i'm tearing my hair out, I'm heading overseas on 11 October from Sydney and can't make i any later due to tours booked.

Carcass are GODS! I read Daniel Erlandsson from Arch Enemy is doing the majority of the drumming with original drummer Ken Owen only able to do 1 or 2 songs in the set due to a brain hemmorage he suffered.

Necroticism is by far the best Carcass album imo.

Thats John Zorn'sside project, right? Outdone by the early Carcass stuff I'm afraid.
Although the best thing about Carcass was always the collosal in-joke that the entire band were vegans (at least in the early years)

This is so f**k'n cool news!!!!!
I am dead set there!!!!!!
I hope they pump out a new Album too!

Spacey I'll bow to you knowledge on this. I cannot imagine anythng more intense than the John Zorn track. I'd rather go to a funeral and the dentist on the same day than listen to that track again. I mean how does one dance to that, let alone hum along
