Last December (2019) the band released their first single in over 5 years “Under The Scalpel Blade,” followed by a 4 song EP entitled Despicable (October 2020), setting a potent precedent for the full length album to come in 2021: TORN ARTERIES. With the album title itself referencing an old demo created by original drummer Ken Own back in the 80’s, TORN ARTERIES sits as a bookend on the modern side of the CARCASS discography, connecting directly back to where everything began over 30 years ago. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe album artwork also rings reminiscent of the grotesque photography that appears on classic CARCASS album covers like Reek Of Putrefaction of Symphonies of Sickness. Artist Zbigniew Bielak traveled outside his normal wheelhouse to bring forth a time lapsed set of photos showing vegetables shaped like a heart, rotting over time upon a white plate. This form of artwork was influenced by Japanese Kusôzu, meaning: ‘painting of the nine stages of a decaying corpse.’\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black City Records","offers":[{"title":"Black Vinyl","offer_id":40783307178140,"sku":"","price":23.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Yellow \u0026 Black Splatter","offer_id":40783307210908,"sku":"","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0497\/5912\/5660\/products\/a0442805256_10.jpg?v=1630245286","url":"https:\/\/www.blackcityrecords.co.uk\/products\/carcass-torn-arteries-lp","provider":"Black City Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
