1) Autopsy is an influential death metal band, founded in 1987 in the United States by Chris Reifert after leaving Death. Beginning their career with the Severed Survival LP, Autopsy took on a sound similar to that of Scream Bloody Gore era Death, but soon moved on to a doom metal influenced sound for the Retribution for the Dead EP. The next full-length, Mental Funeral, would expand on Autopsy's "death doom" style of metal, and was met with great critical acclaim. Having completed a successful European tour soon after Mental Funeral, the band reentered the studio to record the Fiend for Blood EP, which was followed by their third full-length, Acts of the Unspeakable. Autopsy's last album, 1994's Shitfun, was heavily influenced by hardcore punk and would prepare fans for Abscess, Danny Coralles and Chris Reifert's project after Autopsy's demise in 1995, but as of July 2009, have reunited.
The band was featured in the 2005 music documentary Metal: A Headbanger's Journey when the film's narrator and star read aloud a verse from the band's song "Charred Remains".
Autopsy released their album Macabre Eternal in 2011 via Peaceville Records to wide critical acclaim, followed by 2013's album The Headless Ritual, 2014's album Tourniquets, Hacksaws and Graves, and 2015's EP Skull Grinder.

Torn From the Womb
Autopsy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dying in this tomb
Torn...
Bred just to die
We are torn from the womb
Slowly to decay
Everything is bleak
Shroud of black hangs over
Preparing to enter our graves
The lyrics in Autopsy's song, Torn From the Womb, are incredibly dark and morbid. The opening lines, "Torn from the womb, dying in this tomb," seem to refer to the idea that we are born to eventually die, and our time on Earth is like being trapped in a tomb. The repetition of the word "torn" gives a feeling of violence and tearing apart, which could symbolize the brutality of life and death. The next lines, "bred just to die, we are torn from the womb, slowly to decay, till we meet our doom," continue to emphasize the idea that we are all born to die eventually, and our lives are just a slow decay towards death. The line "bred just to die" is especially despairing, as it suggests that life is meaningless if all we are meant to do is suffer and die. The final lines, "everything is bleak, shroud of black hangs over, preparing to enter our graves," paint a stark and hopeless picture of life. The shroud of black could be a metaphor for death, and the idea that we are all preparing to die from the moment we are born is incredibly depressing.

Torn from the womb
Taken from our mother's womb at the beginning of our existence
Dying in this tomb
Metaphorically referring to life as a tomb, where we will ultimately face death
Bred just to die
Existing simply to perish or expire eventually
We are torn from the womb
Reiterating that we are not in control of our birth or mortality
Slowly to decay
Gradually decomposing and falling apart
Till we meet our doom
Until we inevitably confront our final fate, which is death
Everything is bleak
All aspects of existence are dull, dismal, and hopeless
Shroud of black hangs over
A sense of darkness or despair engulfs everything
Preparing to enter our graves
Alluding to the preparation and inevitability of our own caskets and burials

The drumming is fucking tight, to many metal bands lack that. Thanks for the inspiration Chris Reifert, much luck with Abscess!
