A 
carcass is a dead 
body.
A 
carcass is the part of a 
tire that remains when the tread is removed.
Carcass was a British 
grindcore/
death metal band formed by 
Napalm Death guitarist Bill Steer. The band focused on topics mostly relating to the medical field and bizarre combinations of medical equipment and chemicals with human anatomy. This lyrical focus lead many in the music press to falsely believe that one or more members of the band  had studied medicine. There is more evidence to show that this lyrical focus was a method of pushing 
vegetarian beliefs (for example "Exhume to Consume"). The band broke up after relasing 
Swansong, their major label debut.
