Aggressiveness and complexity appear not only in the melodies of Carcass’ songs, but also in the lyrics of some of the songs, which talk about deaths, autopsies and other delicate topics. “Exhume To Consume”, “Unfit For Human Consumption”, “Reek Of Putrefaction” and “Corporal Jigsore Quandary” are some examples.
If for some Carcass’ lyrics may cause repulsion, for others, the words written by bassist and vocalist Jeff Walker were very useful. In December 2013, Jeff gave an interview to the Songfacts website and was asked if any medical students approached the members of Carcass to say that they liked the lyrics of the group’s songs.

Carcass’ most recent work is “Torn Arteries”, released in September 2021.
