Reunited British extreme metal pioneers CARCASS will return to the United States in March for the "Exhumed to Consume II" tour. The follow-up to last year's highly successful "Exhume to Consume" trek will feature SUICIDE SILENCE, SAMAEL, ARSIS and PSYCROPTIC, plus a few special guests on select dates.

Commented vocalist/bassist Jeff Walker: "Well, I'm pleased to announce that CARCASS is gonna settle its unresolved scores in the U.S.! There was some slight whimpers of discontent that we didn't hit some cities such as Chicago and Denver last time round — places that were always hot spots of enthusiasm for us. So we're coming back in March to finish off our unsettled business! We seemed to have had a profound influence on your economy, and gas prices have gotten cheaper, haha! That's doesn't mean we're not gonna come through and provide some value for your buck with some old (and new) school friends and comrades such as SUFFOCATION, SAMAEL, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, EXODUS, SUICIDE SILENCE etc. — check out locally as for who is on the bill where! And hey, I couldn't think of anywhere better to be on my 40th birthday than the Sunshine Theatre in Albuquerque, New Mexico! We promise this will be the last time we darken your shores (I said that with my fingers crossed behind my back)!"

CARCASS guitarist Bill Steer recently hinted in the press that a new studio album from the band was a possibility. Revolver magazine contacted vocalist/bassist Jeff Walker for the scoop. I'm waiting for Bill to confirm it, just like you!" he said. "It's gone from 'No' to 'Maybe' to 'Never say never' — just spit it out, God damn it! We never wanted to be one of those bands that reformed, played again, and then [went on to be] totally lackluster and uninspired."
