Editorial Reviews

Album Description
The Doctors are in.....SANE!!!! Olidous Operettas is the anything-but-sweet science of three genuinely demented medical professionals scrubbing in for an intense vivisection of the Carcass body of work. The County Medical Examiners descant the insalubrious and re-regurgitate giblets of gratuitous gore-grind, creating all new symphonies of sickness for the next generation of pathological practitioners. Cutting soon in an operating theater near you!!!!

Customer Reviews

The oddest grind band around.4
So I bought this album and the first thing I said when I opened the album was "Man... this stinks!" The packaging was so eloquent that it even includes a CD that smells like rotting meat.

Musically, to say that these guys pay tribute to Carcass is like saying the Pacific Ocean is a body of water. This sounds like an album that could have been released 17 years ago. However, the graininess of the recording just adds to the overall aura you get when listening to this album. There isn't anything completely groundbreaking musically (they'll even tell you themselves they're on Carcass like... um, flies on waste). However, put it all together and you have a band that's overwhelmingly unique.

I think the coolest part is the mystery surrounding a release that's a big tribute to goregrind. I mean, are they really 3 real-life pathologists (the bassist is 62 years old and in a grind group! AWESOME!) putting a professional opinion on the music, or is Relapse fooling us all into thinking that? I don't know for certain, and frankly, I don't want the illusion spoiled. So lets just say that if you like good metal music, consider this a CD to own.

REAL GORE4
man i just got this cd and its true it does smell like rotting flesh!i,ve been a long time carcass fan and hearing the songs rearanged is very refreshing.if you like grindcore then this is for you.

as close as it gets..5
this album is not much more than a bunch of carcass riffs and rhythms slightly rearranged. that being said, as a huge carcass fan, i've embraced this album as kind of the missing link between "symphonies" and "necroticism" because it's just that good. it's easy to forget that this is actually an original album, solos and all. their 'worship' is dead on, beating out exhumed, impaled, and the rest of those slightly more original bands. i should give this 4 stars because, despite being a great album, it's not entirely original on its own ..but instead i give it 5 because i'm a starving carcass fan! enjoy.
