### Carcass: Necroticism

#### 09/03/04 || Statik Majik

That´s right, Dimmu Borgir ain´t the only band that can write song titles that make less sense than pope in the whorehouse. Well, at least these titles here actually mean something unlike Dimmu´s songtitles. But “Lavaging Expectorate of Lysergide Composition”? For fucks sakes… Or could someone translate this verse from “Incarnated…” to me:

Intenacious, intersecting
Reaving fats from corporal griskin
Culled…for sodden gelatine brayed
Skeletal groats triturated, desinently
Exsiccated, sere glutenate brewed
For frivolous solvent abuse…

Right, if you say so…

Despite the lyrics – or maybe partially because of the lyrics – this album kicks ass. It is also one of the first deathmetal albums I bought. There´s always been something with this album that makes it a pleasure to listen to, even after all these years. Definatelly a classic. ( edit: this review was written before the Class 6(66) section was born, so that’s why it’s here. )

Walker doesn´t have the regular cookiemonster vocals one could expect from early 90´s deathmetal band and you can actually understand his vocals. Well, you could if the lyrics would make sense. As stated above, they´re “fancy” medical words obviously taken from a medical dictionary. So it wouldn´t make much difference if they´d decided to sing in hebrew. Oh, if you miss cookiemonster vocals, they do have them too, thanks to Bill Steer. He throws in some impressing low voices here and there throughout the whole album. And that makes a good contrast to Jeff´s screaming.

There are loads of melodic solos and riffs on this album. And the songs are reasonably long too. In this album I consider that a good thing. This was also the first Carcass album Michael Amott played on, if I remember correctly. And unless you´re deaf, you definatelly can hear his influences on their music. There are some fast parts on the Necroticism, but the music generally is more slower and heavier deathmetal. This is nothing like the early Carcass or the later Hearwork and Swansong era “rot´n roll” Carcass.

So, as a conclusion: if you want your deathmetal in fast and short doses, you need to listen to Cannibal Corpse. Otherwise Carcass is definatelly the band for you.

Fave-track from this album: Corporal Jigsore Quandary.
