CARCASS - Necroticism - Descanting The Insalubrious Reissue Out Today In Europe
April 21, 2008, 16 years ago
The seminal 1991 album Necroticism - Descanting The Insalubrious from recently-reformed British grindcore legends CARCASS, has been reissued and is available in stores in UK/Europe today (April 21st).
Necrotocism is the first of the five Carcass studio albums to be reissued, and comes fully remastered on DualDisc (CD + DVD) with part 3 of a mini-documentary series entitled The Pathologist's Report as bonus video material.
The documentary consists of interviews, filmed in London and Liverpool at the end of 2007, featuring the members of Carcass - Ken Owen, Bill Steer, Jeff Walker and Michael Amott - who met up for the first time in ten years and were filmed discussing in-depth the story behind the band's development from their gore-soaked grind beginnings to the more refined melodic moments of their later output.
The two-and-a-half hours of interviews that comprise The Pathologist's Report have been edited into five parts of 30-minute mini-documentaries that will be added as bonus material to the DualDisc reissues of each of the band's five studio albums, starting with Necrotocism, with the rest being issued throughout the summer. The CD will come housed in a deluxe digipak and the first 5000 copies will come with free band member death scene cards.
