CARCASS – Torn Arteries (Repress w/ 24-page booklet) – 2LP – Transparent Lime Vinyl [JUN 6]

2LP – Limited Edition Transparent Lime Vinyl with 24-page booklet (2025 Repress).

The general approach to writing hasnt changed much over the years for Carcass. Theres no real designed method, no ones writing a song, coming in the room, and saying: this is how the song goes. A lot of these songs are written around a rhythm, or an idea: have we ever had a song with this type of intro? Have we ever had a song with this type of drumming? If we didnt care, wed do the same generic, verse-chorus song writing bullshit, but we dont want to repeat ourselves. Were always trying to remain creative and have a valid purpose in what were doing.

With Torn Arteries, each track stands unique from the rest in its approach to guitar, bass, vocals and drumming, along with all the finer details. Filthy and dominating guitar work creates thick layers of tone and melody, piling on top of each other like the weight of dead flesh in tracks like Kellys Meat Emporium.
