Mondo Bungle

94. Carnivore - Carnivore (1985)



One of many masterpieces given to us by the late Peter Steele. This is a thrash metal album, don't be fooled by the crossover term. Their second album Retaliation is much punkier and more in the crossover style, but this features a highly original heavy, thrashing style of metal that is just relentless. While it's not without it's own punk influences, there's so much more to this. Thrash/speed metal blended with the odd bits of epicness and doom, and crushing grooves. It's all tied together with sheer rawness, undeniable Idon'tgivea**** attitude and apocalyptic destruction. PC queers need not apply.

The unforgettable, proto-Type O Negative track "Male Supremacy":
