Carcass “Surgical Steel” videos collected

Surgical Steel, the new album from the reunited Carcass, is an achievement for a band that had been broken up for as long as Carcass has, but also on its own merits. It’s sort of a mix of the band’s previous Heartwork and Necroticism – Descanting the Insalubrious albums. Originals Jeff Walker and Bill Steer teamed up with Aborted drummer Dan Wilding on writing and recording the album, and Nuclear Blast released it this year.

The band posted a fistful of videos on YouTube to promote the record, and for your convenience, they are listed below.
