Carnivore – Carnivore LP (Crystal Clear Vinyl) Online

Digitally remastered and expanded edition. Carnivore is one of the most unique bands ever. This first album was their introduction to larger-than-life vocalist bassist Pete Steele, and even though Type O Negative s epic brand of gothic metal was still just a glimmer in his eye, in retrospect one can already recognize the fascinating range of creative contradictions that would always characterize the 6 7 man s work. Petrus Steele (as he was then calling himself), guitarist Keith Alexander, and drummer Louie Beateaux generally focused their energies on incredibly brutal and intentionally raw full-on thrash-outs like Predator, Carnivore, and Legion of Doom ; plus they wore the Mad Max apocalyptic caveman attire on the album s rear sleeve to back it up! This remastered reissue comes with three noticeably hardcore-infused 1986 demos for tracks that would emerge on their sophomore album Retaliation, which was released the following year.
