Only days remain until English extreme metal legends and pioneers of goregrind and death metal CARCASS release their massively anticipated album, “Torn Arteries,” that’s out this Friday, September 17th from Nuclear Blast Records. Today, the band has revealed a new trailer in which they discuss the songwriting behind the record.
“Torn Arteries” is available for pre-order in a variety of bundles and formats, including CD, Box Set and limited edition vinyl pressings. PRE-ORDER at this location.
Ferocious and uncompromising in their execution, CARCASS’s ability to intricately dissect the innards of death metal, and display them for us to sonically understand has been their point of excellence for over three decades. In 2019 the band released their first single in over 5 years “Under The Scalpel Blade,” followed by a 4 song EP entitled “Despicable” (October 2020), setting a potent precedent for the full length album coming in September: “Torn Arteries.” With the album title itself referencing an old demo created by original drummer Ken Owen back in the 80’s, “Torn Arteries” sits as a bookend on the modern side of the CARCASS discography, connecting directly back to where everything began over 30 years ago.
