The Greys said:I don't like symphonies as much as necro but you can tell the band is going into the direction of Necroticism with the music. Both albums are actually not to far appart in terms musically.
Impudent said:Yes, but unfortunately they were originally going to do more. Why would such a great band want to limit themselves so?

fat bastard said:fuckin A man. i actually dig swansong more than heartwork. its a little more simple but its catchy as hell with some cool lyrics and i enjoy the vocals and overall songwriting much more than the earlier more technical stuff but thats just a style choice.
Carcassian said:I'm feeling that vibe. Jeff Walker, I think, was really going into a NWOBHM influenced stage, and Bill Steer was obviously getting into the whole rock thing (as evidenced with Firebird). The whole monster hook / catchy straight forward metal songwriting was well ahead of its time with respect to the short lived death n' roll boom of the mid to late nineties.
I'm a huge Carcass fan, but I don't feel like they "sold out". I enjoy the humour and spite in the lyrics, and fuck, they already recorded the best gore/grind, death metal and melodic death metal albums, why the fuck would they record more of the same?
Good point.The Greys said:The entire thought of someone thinking of believing a band they like has to put out their favorite cd again and again is stupid especially when the people writing the music are the ones that have to play the same riffs and songs over and over for hours and also tour. For some reasons fans are in awe when a band does something different or sounds different years later.
I think there is a difference between changing while making good music and bands that are just to old, and also washed.
No wonder carcass said fuck metal and left. What would point in dealing with people that think your cd is going to sound like it's 92. There was nothing wrong with swansong musically. If you like a band not being able to go with the band letting them open you up to things you would not like you are probably not a fan.
One of those points of a band is to be able to do something and show you it's cool to like it. If a band does something you like that should draw you in enough so that you have an opened mind to listen to their music if they became different. Sometimes you don't realize certain elements or a style is good until your favorite band does it and you are like you know this is good.
