World Wars III and IV 10:13 Total playing time 43:15Carnivore was a thrash metal band formed by Peter Steele (later of Type O Negative fame), and was formed out of the ruins of the Brooklyn hard rock group Fallout in 1982. They released two albums: "Carnivore" in December of (1985) and "Retaliation" September of (1987). The band broke up not long thereafter, and Peter Steele formed Subzero, which would become Type O Negative. The first Type O Negative album, "Slow Deep and Hard" was partially composed from material originally written for Carnivore. Despite being disbanded for over 15 years, there have been several reunion shows that have taken place over the years. On April, 24, 2006 German Rock Hard Magazine stated that another reunion show had been announced to take place at Wacken Open Air in Germany. The reunion tour did spread to the US, also in 2006. The previous reunion tour had been in 1996.The first album is more traditionally metal-sounding, drawing inspiration from Black Sabbath and 1970s Judas Priest, while the second has significant crossover influence. The 'post-apocalyptic' theme that dominated the first album and spread partially into the second album was apparently based on a dream Pete Steele had that became the basic for the lyrics of "Predator", the first song from the original album. All other compatible lyrical themes are said to compliment the environment of humanity (or lack of) between World Wars 3, 4 and possibly 5 (as referenced in 'World Wars 3 & 4'). Both albums fit neatly into the speed-thrash genre, however. The lyrical themes include nihilism, anti-religious sentiment, racism, intolerance, and general human stupidity, a heap of cynicism, and explicit tongue-in-cheek depictions of gore and despair. For example, this line from "Ground Zero Brooklyn" sums up the band fairly well: "I shit my pants as I wait for the reaper!". Song titles and lyrical themes like "Jesus Hitler", "Race War", and "God is Dead" are also representative of their humour, dry wit and dumbed-down intelligence explaining the fate of humanity. Some would argue that their lyrics inflame prejudice among minorities, others would say they highlight the futility of such attitudes.DISCLAIMER: Standard disclaimers apply.
