Carcass is an English death metal band from Liverpool, formed in 1985. The band has undergone several line-up changes, with guitarist Bill Steer and bassist-vocalist Jeff Walker remaining the only constant members. They disbanded in 1996 but reformed in 2007 without original drummer Ken Owen for health reasons. To date, the band has released seven studio albums, two compilation albums, four EPs, two demo albums, one video album, and six music videos.
Carcass was among the few death metal bands to sign to a major label. Columbia Records handled North American distribution for their fourth studio album, "Heartwork" (1993), while the album was distributed worldwide by Earache, which released all the band’s albums up to and including "Swansong" (1996).
