The classic 1996 album marks the recording finale of Carcass and is the third of their five studio albums to be reissued. The Swansong reissue comes fully remastered on a DualDisc (combined CD and DVD) in a deluxe digipak with extra artwork and a free sticker sheet featuring exclusive Carcass designs, and includes part 5 of a mini-documentary series entitled The Pathologist's Report as bonus video material, plus an exclusive bonus track, "Deathrider Da".
The documentary consists of interviews, filmed in London and Liverpool at the end of 2007, featuring the members of Carcass - Ken Owen, Bill Steer, Jeff Walker and Michael Amott - who met up for the first time in ten years and were filmed discussing in-depth the story behind the band's development from their gore-soaked grind beginnings to the more refined, melodic moments of their later output.
