@eon14873 really? according to reliable sources available to me, like rumour, small children and wikipedia; "Carcass was formed as a D-beat band by guitarist Bill Steer together with drummer Ken Owen in 1985 under the name Disattack. After releasing a demo entitled A Bomb Drops ... in 1986, Paul (bassist) and Andrew Pek (vocalist) of Disattack left the band and were replaced by vocalist Sanjiv and bassist Jeff Walker"

but if you insist i'm very eager to learn of any deviation.

peace

@Lem65 the tune is just right, compliments for making such a REAL deal type of track, that just really captured what punk felt like, back then :oD

@07725539147 .........last year this was bootlegged as an e.p. on purple vinyl but only with a run of 100 copies & I think you'd have a job getting one now. No idea where the source was...mebbe Denmark....a few went on ebay for about £10. Mids says there might be something getting released in Brazil soon & I've just been interviewed for a South Korean mag/fanzine about the band...25yrs on, it's all a bit bizarre.

totally nice ?....NICE??????...how dare you :-)

actually the intro was meant to have a majestic church organ kinda sound 'cept all I could get from a keyboard that was laying about in studio was something resembling an ice cream van (more to do with me than the keyboard you understand).....thanks all the same, I wrote that one (well, I showed Bill the chords & insisted on a bass solo) & I'll take 'nice' every time.

@AfYN ...you are right, the names on the cassette cover are most certainly the guys playing on this. ie: it is indeed Middie on drums & not Ken ....the original band was Middie, Pek, Bill & Mike Poole (Dementia) on bass.....I don't think Mike wanted to do both bands so Middie asked me to audition. After the demo & a coupla gigs I got off for some reason :-/, then Mids & Pek & the rest is history.......

FYI 'unknown' is called 'Black Heart'........I think. :-)

peace.....Paul (bass)
