Carcass

I got hold of the discography of Carcass, a grindcore, death and melodic metal band from the 90's whose members are from Liverpool. They have reunited recently and they are touring again, including some big festivals as Wacken or similar ones. Band members are:

Jeff Walker - Voz/Bajo (Brujería, Blackstar, ex-Electro Hippies)
Bill Steer - Guitar/Voz (ex-Napalm Death, Firebird)
Michael Amott - Guitar (1990-1993, 2008-) (Arch Enemy, Spiritual Beggars, Candlemass, Armageddon, Carnage)
Ken Owen - Drums (Blackstar)

To my memories came the song "Keep On Rotting In The Free World" from their 1995 album "Swansong", or their song "Emotional Flatline" from "Wake Up And Smell The Carcass" (1996). So, here is the promotional video for "Keep On Rotting In The Free World", another representative from the metal status of the 90's (good memories and feelings come back):



Lyrics:

[Walker]

THE THREADS OF GLOBAL FABRIC ARE UNITED,
THE ROLE OF THE WESTERN FREE WORLD IS IN DECLINE,
STILL FREE TO CONSUME, FREE TO BREATHE,
FREE TO EXIST, FREE TO DREAM, YOUR LIFE OF DREAMS,

KEEP ON ROTTING, KEEP ON ROTTING, KEEP ON HOPING, DREAMING, ONE DAY MAYBE,
KEEP ON ROTTING, KEEP ON HOPING, WHILST IN THE REAL WORLD YOU...

CONSUMER OR CONSUMED, YOUR LIFE IS CHEAP,
ECONOMIC SALVATION IN SWEATSHOPS RETURNED FROM THE EAST,
DESPAIR THE ONLY QUALITY OF STRIFE,
A REASON FOR EXISTENCE IF YOU CAN AFFORD THE PRICE,
IF YOUR PRICE IS RIGHT,

KEEP ON ROTTING, KEEP ON HOPING, KEEP ON DREAMING, ONE DAY MAYBE,
KEEP ON ROTTING, KEEP ON HOPING, KEEP ON DREAMING,
WHILST IN THE REAL WORLD YOU...
KEEP ON ROTTING, KEEP ON HOPING, KEEP ON DREAMING, ONE DAY MAYBE,
KEEP ON ROTTING, KEEP ON HOPING, KEEP ON DREAMING,
WHILST IN THE REAL WORLD YOU...
...ROT!!!!!

Metallica's new album

Death Magnetic is coming out the 12th of this month. Listening to some of the tracks gives me an impression of a mixture of "And Justice For All..." with some "Load" and "Reload" stuff, but we will have to wait until the release. I think I will need to listen to it quite a few times before I get used to it. Basically what happened to me with "St Anger", but no way is comparable to the almighty Metallica from the good old days! Check out for more details in their official website.
