Carcass reissues

[dixie whiskey]

Question for y'all. Are these Carcass reissues that Earache's doing worth the cash? I'm a little curious about the DVD thing but fourteen bucks is a lot for an album I've already owned for years...

Thoughts? http://www.earachestore.com/store/carcass.html

just got one in the mail today but am yet to watch the dvd... looks like it is worth it as it has fair bit of stuff ont he dvd other than the band laying a gig filmed on some shitty hand held camera.

I think it's very fair. original artwork, dvd included...

I don't have Swansong or Symphonies of Sickness, so I am getting the re-issues of those. Reek of Putrefaction can suck a dick though

swansong isn't a good work, SOS is essential.

I've never heard it, but I'll be the judge of how good Swansong is. I don't think anything I have yet to hear from the band can top Heartwork though

yeah. i didn't like cuz there aren't brutal songs.

no blasting beats, no good riffs.

My copy of Necroticism was stolen many moons ago so I am really thinking about getting this reissue. The dvd with it is probably really awesome too.

With me, Necrotism edges out Heartwork, because of the Guitarwork, and they still were writing the clever gruesome lyrics. Once again.....the first 4 albums are essential. I do like Swansong, I just think of it as a 'Countdown to Extinction'-era Megadeth sounding album, not a true Carcass album. Now the Blackstar album, (Swansong line-up, minus Bill Steer) was unbearable. Musically decent, but Jeff Walker trying to sing was really hilarious! Kinda sounded like Alice Cooper and Gonzo with a serious cold.
