Carcass to drop new EP ‘Despicable,’ premiere new song “The Living Dead At The Manchester Morgue”

UK deathgrind legends Carcass have set October 30, 2020 as the official street date for their new EP on Nuclear Blast Records titled ‘Despicable’ (pre-order).

You can listen to the LP’s lead-off track, “The Living Dead At The Manchester Morgue,” below. The mini-effort also includes tracks “The Long And Winding Bier Road”, the previously released “Under The Scalpel Blade” (album version), and “Slaughtered In Soho.”

If you recall, Carcass were going to release a new full-length album, ‘Torn Arteries,’ this month, but due to COVID-19, the LP has been postponed indefinitely.

In a press release, Carcass’ Jeff Walker said:

Well the Covid situation has put the release of the new CARCASS album on the back burner for the time being. Given that we said there’d be new music in August we thought it would be cool to have a stop gap release and let you hear some of the tracks that never quite made the cut. Don’t say we never give you anything. Enjoy.
