seeing these dudes in May at Maryland DM fest and am so stoked.
It's kind of funny, Reek was my favorite for years, but I think Symphonies is mine now, although honestly I like all through Heartwork (haven't heard Swansong yet).
I just feel like Symphonies has this severe ugliness but its controlled ugliness.

Tempted to redo in light of Surgical Steel.

I never really play Surgical Steel anymore. I really liked it as a successful return to the classic Carcass sound (much as, say, Divine Intervention, Blood Of The Nations or Macabre Eternal), but every time I want to listen to Carcass I pull out the actual old records instead.

Symphonies of Sickness 1
here's the thing: this album is fucking incredibly sick and deserves six votes as well

Despicable is good, isn't really a high energy album like Surgical Steel, but that's why its an EP - a stopgap prior to the real deal.
the songs have more of the high string harmonized riffs, but the vocals are dope - it's like a chorus of voices again. also new guitarist Tom Draper wtf I'm not gonna get used to that name.

definitely a solid B plus, but I expect much more from next year's full-length
