Experience the triumphant return of the gore-grind pioneers with Carcass’ 2013 masterpiece, Surgical Steel. Released via Nuclear Blast, this limited edition CD marks the legendary UK band’s first studio album in nearly two decades, successfully bridging the gap between their clinical death metal roots and the melodic precision of their mid-90s era.
Critically acclaimed with perfect 5/5 ratings, Surgical Steel is described as an iconic "concentrated dose" of everything that makes Carcass essential. The album features the masterful guitar work of Bill Steer, blending vicious, catchy riffs with "tasty" lead work that surpasses the band's classic 90s output. From the technical medicinal horror of "Non Compliance to ASTM F 899-12 Standard" to the aggressive "Captive Bolt Pistol," the record delivers a flawless mix of clinical death-thrash and melodic death metal.
Key Highlights:
- Genre-Defining Sound: A perfect evolution from the celebrated Heartwork and Necroticism styles.
- Standout Tracks: Includes fan favorites "The Granulating Dark Satanic Mills" and the epic acoustic-tinged closer "Mount of Execution."
- Premium Production: Crisp, professional sound quality that highlights the band's quirky technical flairs.
Whether you are a long-time follower of the Liverpool legends or a newcomer to the genre, Surgical Steel is a must-have addition to any serious metal collection. Welcome back to the slaughter.
