Carcass is kickass

Affirmative.

Sucks that they decided to split up when they did. With Heartwork, they finally got the production they deserved. Their earlier albums contained some really interesting songs, but were just recorded and mixed like total shit. Swansong, the final post-breakup album released, was an even farther departure from their early progressive stuff, so who knows what further albums would've had in store. Oh well.
