| | Controversial? Carcass Ranking | | 7 |  | Carcass
Torn Arteries
Not sure what happened here. It's by no means a terrible album, but it kind of sounds like the lost the plot here. That being said, I think the album cover is amazing and the perfect visual representation of everything Carcass has been preaching about lyrically since their early days. | | 6 |  | Carcass
Surgical Steel
Surgical Steel is one of the greatest comebacks in metal history and it is a great album, but at the end of the day it is Heartwork 2.0 and not as good as the original. | | 5 |  | Carcass
Reek of Putrefaction
One of the most indecipherable and impenetrable hardcore albums of all time. If you ask me, this is up there with Scum in terms of influence and perhaps even better material-wise. | | 4 |  | Carcass
Heartwork
Overrated in terms of where people place in Carcass' discography but that only speaks to how ironclad their career has been. Again, Carcass created an album that fits in a genre but doesn't bow to any trend. This is melodeath on their own terms. | | 3 |  | Carcass
Swansong
Swansong does not have a weak track on it and is the best death'n'roll album ever. | | 2 |  | Carcass
Symphonies of Sickness
It is not often that guitar riffs make me want to puke because they are so disgusting and yet.... here we are. | | 1 |  | Carcass
Necroticism: Descanting the Insalubrious
At a time when death metal records were being lumped by region (Florida, New York, Gothenburg, Stockholm, etc...) Carcass created one of the most singular albums in the genre. | |

08.11.22 | I already know Swansong over Heartwork is gonna cause problems | Willie
08.11.22 | Absolutely, it's going to cause problems. Ha ha. Anything over Heartwork is a problem for me. Heartwork was the first Carcass album I heard and still an all-time favorite. I'd probably say 4, 6, 1, 3, 7, 2, 5 | TheSpirit
08.11.22 | I gotta be honest, Swansong was my first Carcass record so I am extremely biased when it comes to where I rank it on my persona list haha. Putting Symphonies second last is an interesting move... you're more keen on their melodic stuff I am guessing? | Willie
08.11.22 | I'm not a fan of the grind genre, really. I like the newer Napalm Death stuff where they're more metal than grind, but that's really as close as I get to the genre. So... yes, definitely love the melodic stuff more. | TheSpirit
08.11.22 | I am the same, I am not a huge grind fan either. Something about how shitty Reek sounds just speaks to me though, lol | FreakMachine
08.11.22 | Heartwork and Surgical Steel are my favourites | bgillesp
08.11.22 | 1346275 | combustion07
08.11.22 | I'd swap Reek and Heartwork but otherwise I agree with this ranking | FreakMachine
08.11.22 | Heartwork is just incredible m/ | rockarollacola
08.11.22 | 5 being anything but last is a travesty. Awful album. | TheSpirit
08.11.22 | Carbonized Eye Sockets is better than anything off 6 and 7 | combustion07
08.11.22 | "5 being anything but last is a travesty. Awful album."
Fist fight me bro | rockarollacola
08.12.22 | "Carbonized Eye Sockets is better than anything off 6 and 7"
-I distinctly remember hating Carbonized Eye Sockets in particular.
"Fist fight me bro"
-Deal

08.12.22 | Fascinating rating | Koris
08.12.22 | Let me make things even more controversial then... to me, Surgical Steel is a better version of Heartwork ;] | rockarollacola
08.12.22 | "Let me make things even more controversial then... to me, Surgical Steel is a better version of Heartwork"
I mean, their user scores aren't too far apart, so it may not be as controversial as you think. Now if you said their debut was better than Heartwork I'd simply call you a retard. | Heppasodge
08.12.22 | Great list, but the important question - are they melodeath??? | KennyAlwaysDies
08.16.22 | 5 is 1 | naughtcturnal
08.29.22 | imagine if at the gates had a reek of putrefaction | bigguytoo9
09.22.22 | Yup, I agree. 1 is 1, totally. Their best album bar none, Necroticisim. | Deez
09.22.22 | So close, 5/4/3 should be 3/5/4 | DType
09.22.22 | 1 is 1 [2] |
