I'm with you on that one.
Not all "gore" lyrics are just about gore for gores sake. The most obvious examples would be on Carcass - Symphonies of Sickness or Necroticism - if you read the lyrics, you'll find that they are often used as a parrallel to how we use animals in our society...(Carcass were vegans at the time).
Check the lyrics out:-
Intenacious, intersecting
Reaving fats from corporal griskin
Culled...for sodden gelatine brayed
Skeletal groats triturated, desinently
Exsiccated, sere glutenate brewed
For frivolous solvent abuse...
Derogate coarse remains
For glue to dry
Despoiled marrow razed
...A truculent shambles so severe...
Extravated bone - as adhesive incarnate
A pellucid quietus - nocuosly I create
Corporal glue, breathe in the fumes
Mucilage vapours, toxic fumes to savour
(Lead: Glue stiffing by W.G. Steer)
Comminuted remains
As gum to dry
A lissom gel so glazed
...A truculent shambolic affair...
The exsanguine esprit - snorted as snuff
Rheumic oils forever - Bonded together as gum
Human glue, choke on the fumes
Noxious vapours, slaughterous labour...
(Lead: Viscous residue snorting by M. Amott)
Which were written with the "melting down" of equine and bovine corpses to make certain non synthetic glues.
