Since the early '90s, San Francisco's Exhumed have honed their brand of gore-obsessed death metal with a tongue-in-cheek flair and an overall musical approach often reminiscent of Carcass, a band they have frequently acknowledged as a primary influence. Diligently led by founding guitarist Matt Harvey, they have endured constant lineup changes over the years. Their brutal riffs and horrifically grotesque lyrical themes only intensified as the years went on, resulting in uncompromising efforts like 2003's Anatomy Is Destiny, 2011's All Guts, No Glory, and 2022's To the Dead.
