Nice to see that Ken never got shut out, very cool of Jeff and Bill to keep him in the fold so to speak, and they cut him in an equal share of any money that Carcass makes...How cool is that??

It’s awesome. It really, really cool how they still try to “keep him in the band” despite his disability, and how well they treat him. Most people wouldn’t think because of the music, but Carcass are really nice guys.

I met Ken when they did their first US reunion tour , when the band came out after the show, Jeff and Bill made it a point that the fans also talk to Ken and asked him for his autograph. But the big thing is these guys are actually friends not just a bunch of dudes playing in a band together

There may be a legal element to that because Ken's name is on the credits of the work they did but far more than that it's because Ken is important to Bill & Jeff not just as a founding member of the band but also because they're close friends. Good chaps!

Ken Owen is a fantastic musician.

These guys never sold out. They're just here for the music. Absolutely love them. LOVE CARCASS

Bill appears such a genuinely nice and friendly chap, comes across well mannered and softly spoken in every interview.

I LOVE how they treat their friend and former drummer, Ken.

Ken was the reason I became a drummer so thank you carcass and ken for everything god bless

It Made me Cry that they still have him in the Band. Its a Shame that those things anytimes happen to Good People.

Necroticism had such a amazing guitar. My favorite guitar tone in heavy metal period along with Heartwork. So heavy warm and cold sounding at the same time.

Absolutely! The tone and mix itself is so great!

I’m listening to every Carcass album I’m order . This album is so brutal and sonically insane .

Loved that final bit with Ken reading some of the lyrics out loud ❤

First two albums are the best, but I also really love necroticism, and Surgical Steel. Really wish they did a ‘back to form’ and wrote and released another goregrind album

I've watched this a few times, ken grew up round the corner from me

How is he now is he ok?

Only been a fan of Carcass for about a year. But they're my joint favourite band now. Happy days! They seem really cool and Ken is awesome.

I’ve never understood the absolute refusal of other Carcass fans to the band’s progression. Jesus Fuck thank God one of the bands I love progresses. That’s what you want from a band unless you are five. Ugh ugh ugh. Loving Arteries.

Unnecessary point to make but I always thought Carcass should have been as big if not bigger than Cannibal Corpse as they have a lot more substance musically. If it was Carcass in that Ace Ventura movie instead of Cannibal... who knows might have been the case

LOST MEDIA ALERT: An cassette tape audio-rip of Bill Steer playing guitar in his bedroom, semi-rehearsal style. Might also have included bass.Maybe from '87? It was prior to the release of "Symphonies..", as he jams some early versions of those songs. It could be lost to the ages, but I recall seeing it on the LOCKJAW blogspot, and a higher quality one on Thrashmageddon forums. figured I'd leave a note here and rely on the future.

Great guys, spoke them, see them, en luve Ken!! This band is underated, these folks are tallented and very nice lads!!!

Strange (but cool) that the live footage at the 10:38 mark shows the classic 4-piece lineup.

respect for this thing that You are still beside poor Ken, nice of You

such an incredible band

Caught them in Dallas, Tx area in the ‘90’s and so glad I did! Some of the beet years in music.

Man...good to see KEN included in this documentary. Awesome.

I cannot understand anything they are saying and the fact that the entire thing is shot in pubs where all of their words echo.

Is it me or does Ken sound a lot like Ozzy, I'm not saying that disrespectfully, it's all the opposite!

ugh this is HEAVILY edited, mandatory thumbs DOWN.

Best Death/Grindcore band in history of the genre! I was devastated at the news of Ken Owen, who was in still is, imho the best grind/death drummer ever! Nobody played like this chap!

p. s. They are vegetarians, and two members are vegans. Ironic the name Carcass. I always loved Heartwork, great album, these guys were doing Melodic Death before Gothenburg even had a sound.

Ken Owen rules. One of the greats, no matter what the genre

The filmmakers don't know how to handle Ken's difficulty talking and consistently get artful with their angles, and cutting cropping to edit out some of the awkwardness. The extent to which they do it is disrespectful. Watch how the camera is comfortable sitting on Jeff or Bill for long takes but they do not do so with Ken. As time goes on it becomes clear that not only is Ken still pretty sharp, he doesn't have the prickliness of Jeff or the aloof and distant quality of Bill but is seemingly without agenda, fortunately he gets to speak a bit more in the later episodes. For those who don't know the story of what happened, it was a stroke, and Ken tells the story at the end of episode 5 (about 21 minutes in).

Totally agreed with you! At the beginning I thought "yeah they have included Ken, that's pretty nice", but then it's like he was there but don't participated at all. The good thing is that Jeff and Bill didn't forget him, I think this documentary is from 2007 and it's good to see Ken's appearance in "Unfit for Human Consumption" video in 2013. On the long road, it seems that the part when Bill said that he wanted to play in a band with his best friends is true.

Honestly even though Reek sounded like a bag of socks being thrown into a jet engine, it's probably my second favorite Carcass record after Symphonies Also Ken fucking rules and I really hope he's doing okay

Poor Ken, i really miss him on the new album :(

Try surviving a brain hemorrhage that leaves you for almost a year in bed and you have to basically learn to do everything from zero again (talking, walking, etc) Most people don't survive that but he managed to. His motor skills got damaged that's the main reason he's not behind the drum kit. He can still play but not like he used to.

Man, I'm so glad Ken is still such a huge part of the band. Those are true friends who stick with you and stay by no matter what. It's Ken's personality that really keeps it all together. So pumped for this new album. I had every Carcass CD on rotation back in the 90's for a solid 8 years. You got in my truck and you heard Carcass.. Too bad you're listening to Carcass. I have some old photo's I took during the Heartwork tour in Berkley, Ca circa 1995-1996 I should scan and post sometime.

Great footage, so hilarious stuff going on, rock on Carcass in 2014 !! See you at Graspop !!

What is funny is that I did a Carcass gig flyer when they first formed ( I at the time used to tape-trade with Bill), and i did their original logo but with the letter "A" done Anarchy style - Bill was like cool logo but the anarchy logo don"t fit with what the band is about.... and now i see this?? LOL Ask Bill hahaha

i am so glad to enjoy soon their new album

Used to see Carcass at the memo club in Wrexham, every time they played... fkn chaos !!!!!

I really love both.

I never really got into their sound but I am grateful to them for what they did for extreme music. In my opinion this was the British invasion that mattered. Thanks to them there is Exhumed and plenty of other bands.

I remember the first time I heard a carcass album. I was a kid and there was no internet. I would go into tower records and buy random tapes that I thought I would think might be cool. I bought the cassette for heartwork. Put it into my player and I was like omg what the fuck is this!? I couldn't put my finger on it but it was the b tuning with the high eq. One of the best albums i have ever heard to date.

I heard they are releasing a new album. Can't wait to grab it!

Jeff Walker's hilarious!

Haha, Ken Owen reciting the lyrics at the end was great.

I love seeing these guys. The last time I saw Carcass was in the 90's at a club calle Washington Square. The line-up was: Napalm Death, Cathedral, Brutal Truth, and Carcass (can't beat a line-up that has old and new Napalm/Carcass members at the same venue)!!!

I fucking love Carcass

This men are Legend ... respect

I want that "I REEK OF PUTREFACTION" on a shirt!

Someone finally gave Jeff some chewing gum!

That's not even open for discussion :) Saw them on Saturday in Leeds and they blew everyone away. Ken Owen came on at the end with a drum solo, everyone loved it, absolute legends.

They're friends, and I've seen them live together. Both great in their own respects

they where only it for the music and fun honest and genuine all the way

Let's face it: Carcass is better than Napalm Death.

Jeff and Bill had recorded the album with Daniel Wilder on drums and Ken Owen on some of the Vocals!

Please add subs to this, I can get almost everything despite the somewhat thick brit accents but sometimes its hard to understand what someone's saying!

He's doing a lot better than a lot of people who survive brain hemorrhage. It's a pretty extreme thing to survive through. Most people just die. He's still the same person, his ability to move his body was just affected and it slows his communication down.

Carcass is a brilhant band.

only in it for the fun and music

It's not a problem to love them both. Carcass is just getting better and better - Napalm Death is still the same (but stil awesome)..

Carcass the best old death metal band

Jeff´s the talker ....and Kenn´s the ROCKER

I wonder if Earache are releasing the new Carcass album. Bring on the Carcass UK Tour 2013

Is this on DVD by chance?

yes, I know ^^ saw them live this year, unafortunally he's not playing :/

the best Death Metal band ever right after Death, in my opinion.
