From the album "Necroticism: Descanting The Insalubrious" (1991).


Lyrics:

"Human remains in a beaker and tray and coffee pot. Bones which were being
partly macerated, dissolved, in a margarine container which had engine
coolant in it. It smelled very awful."

Striking up my discordant underture
A carnal cacophony perversely penned
Transposed...and decomposed
On strings fashioned from human twine
Lovingly wound and fretted upon my bow
Garishly incarcerated...the dead resonate
In a final death-throe

Vibrant as I thresh...
Movements scripted for the dead...

Orchestral horrors I vehemently conduct
My corpus concertos cordial
Disinterred... and detuned
With six feet below
In harmony with the deceased
My inspiration...your disintegration
For my latest masterpiece

My scope creeps your flesh...
Notes seep from sinewy frets...

But don't hold your breath
As you wait for your god or the void
Or the abyss of nothingness
Your usefulness isn't through
Your productivity I resume...

My sorbid, soiled handicrafts
Will be your afterlife's handicap....

...My corrupt crescendos...
...Will leave you out on a limbo...
...Your disposition I unleash...
...You will rest in my piece...

With deadly dynamics
You're dead, buried and barred
Your remains dampened and fingered
Your mortal coil is barbed
The death-bells are peeling
Ringing out as you flake
Shrieking out their recitals
A celebration of your wake...

Enter my funereality
My world two metres under
A curious habitat
Your muddy trench I plunder
Pass on to ethereality
Churned out under the sextant's blade
You live your life in wretchedness
And death is no escape...

  • Necroticism is one of the best metal albums ever made!

  • "Death is no escape" That's why I am sitll alive.

  • @ThePurefuckingMayhem

    I'm not sure about some of them but I do know that the beginning of "Symposium Of Sickness" is a sample of HG Lewis from "The Incredibly Strange Film Show". It's here on Youtube. Maybe the other clips are from similar programs.

  • One person disliked this song. One person doesn't know music. Because that is really all Carcass is. Good music.

  • I guess the clips are recordings from some medical school lectures . Necroticism is the album that changed the sound of everything. unbelievable compositions and insane sound. and that is almost 20 years now. hard to swallow on the first run but after that ... its like solving the Lament Configuration .. CARCASS ftw

  • i wana know wat the begining of the songs all mean and whos saying it

  • Awesome. Amazing track. The best part of it is that amazing playing towards the end. Why this band is one of the best. Hail Carcass.
