Carcass

Carcass are an English death metal band from Liverpool, formed in 1985. The band have gone through several line-up changes. Guitarist Bill Steer and bassist-vocalist Jeff Walker are the only constant members. They broke up in 1996, but reformed in 2007 without original drummer Ken Owen, for health reasons. To date, the band have released seven studio albums, two compilation albums, four EPs, two demo albums, one video album, and six music videos. Carcass were one of the few extreme metal acts to sign to a major label. Columbia Records handled North American distribution for their fourth studio album, Heartwork (1993), while the album was distributed worldwide by Earache who released all of the band's albums up to and including Swansong (1996). In 2016, the staff of Loudwire named them the 21st best metal band of all time.
