Inpropagation by Carcass
From the album "Necroticism - Descanting the Insalubrious"
Transcribed by Peter Wishart
Yo, carcass fans! Necroticism is my favourite album of all time so
here is the first track INPROPAGATION, all 6 mins of it. A couple of
the solo bits are a bit touch-and-go but the cool riffs'n'things
should be spot on...:) Mail me with any suggestions/improvements/
comments/etc at psw@dcs.ed.ac.uk as I dont read the tab newsgroups
much. I think i'll do HEARTWORK next, or maybe HUMAN JIGSORE QUANDARY
(but that one is almost TOO atonal in places :)
Guitar tuned 5 steps lower - B E A D F# B low to high (although I
suppose it could be B E A D G B to match a 5-string bass but that
complicates things :)
_full _1/2_
Notation legend: 3' is a full tone bend, 3' ` is a semitone
bend and release. The [ lines separate the alternate endings for a
bar. is palm muting, is left hand muting. And / is a
slide up, \ is a slide down.
spooky intro bitty...
High and low synths arr. for guitar

A body is commited to a public mortuary. Any victim of sudden or unexpected
death will be brought in for a post-mortem by a pathologist : their job is to
establish the cause of death. But sometimes a body is unrecognisable. Then it
is vital, especially if murder is suspected, to establish identity...
Insipid fumes bellow from the atrabilious chimney
Whilst in the sanctified crevet I calmly pillage and rake
For hot dry powdered human slag
Still steaming in the crematorium's gate
Bio-organic ebullition, bones tar, tallow dehydrates
For my deleterious horticulture so that I may cultivate
Your mortal mechanism dies - in nutrients rich
In the hallowed turf you lie - just for the taking
Charred sinew's as good as lime, no phosphates do I need
Deteriorated flesh used as top-soil, to replenish and nourish seed
Spreading the human potash, as ash matured
Recycling my rich harvest, bring out your dead - for use as manure
Irrigating tears are shed, but the ground must still be fed,
And there's no rest for the dead
Tipping and dusting up the spilt contents of urns
Every morsel that glows as embers on the fire
Extinguishing all hope of beatrific dispatch
These charred chassis desired
Exequiet rites now performed, a coronach sooting up the flu
Enter my execrable inferno, even in the afterlife there's work to do
The nitrogen content's high - but the flesh is weak
At the graveside mourners cry - your're never to wake again
Burnt brisket renews the ground, to germinate my seed
Cremated bodies are my spoil, to use them as plant feed
Ploughing this abhorrent human manure
Seedling my rich harvest, bring out your dead - for the soils to devour
Dry the dead are bled, because the ground must be fed,
And there's still no rest for the dead
I propagate - dust in the grate
Ashes to ashes - dust to dust, diluted in water and sprayed on crops,
Charcoal, fats, flesh and soot fetilising pasture with active fertile rot
Incumbent - latent calories are spent
Ashes to ashes - dust to dust, renewing the land with corpses corrupt
Mortuary scrapings, hearses a must, to the hot hearth the deceased are trussed
Harvesting the defouled, to fertilise my soil
Rejuvenating the spent with my fecundate spoils
Reaping the gone, to nourish the land
Replenishing exhausted pasture with my uncanny sleight of hand
Restoring the natural balance, sowing my seed
Dafalcating the departed, I rapt and glean...
So I recite my contrite lament, lacrimation for the dead
Their rest which I disturb...
Where should stand row upon row of cold grey remebrance stones
My cash crops now grow...
