SENSATION: CARNIVORE : "WE ARE COMING!"

Liebe Metalheads,

die Sensation ist endlich perfekt - CARNIVORE kommen für nur zwei exclusiv Shows nach Europa und spielen in Wacken - Aug 4.

Peter Steele quote "Carnivore".

“ WE ARE COMING! The first time ever on the European Continent. Say your prayers for the future. Punishment now for all men through computers. WE ARE COMING! “

Peter Steele

Carnivore is:

Peter Steele – Vocal / Bass

Paul Bento – Guitar / Vocal

Joey Zampela – Guitar / Vocal

Steve Tobin – Drums / Vocal

In den späten 80ern zählte Carnivore, die vorherige Band von Type O Negative Frontmann Pete Steele, zu den angesagtesten Bands der New Yorker Szene - nicht zuletzt wegen ihrer extrem explosiven Liveshows und kontroversen Songtexten in Ihren legendären Alben Carnivore" und Retaliation.

Schon zu Zeiten der alten Carnivore hat Peter Steele (Bass/Gesang) sehr genaue Vorstellungen sowohl vom Sound als auch von Outfit seiner Band. Da sich beides nicht ganz so umsetzen lässt, wie der zwei Meter Hüne sich das denkt, löst er die Band nach zwei zumindest textlich sehr umstrittenen Alben auf. Dank seines eigenwilligen Humors muss sich Peter den Vorwurf des Rassismus gefallen lassen, was im Hinblick auf seinen eigenen Stammbaum und sein soziales Umfeld aber vollkommener Blödsinn ist.

As previously reported, former DUST TO DUST and current METAL HEALTH ASSOCIATION drummer Steve Tobin has been tapped by TYPE O NEGATIVE's Peter Steele to be the drummer in Steele's new version of CARNIVORE. Two as-yet-undisclosed guitarists complete the group's new lineup.

Steve recently recorded an instrumental rock/prog rock CD with guitarist Mike Orlando, and has done numerous studio sessions in L.A., Nashville, and New York. More information on METAL HEALTH ASSOCIATION can be found at this location.

Natives of Brooklyn, N.Y., CARNIVORE spent their early years in the 1980s earning a reputation as one of the area's most dangerous bands. Crowds would stare in utter shock as these instrument-wielding warriors would take the stage clad in futuristic outfits that typified the meaning of CARNIVORE.

Dressed to the hilt in fur-covered shoulder pads, spikes, hockey equipment, nails and anything that gave them the appearance of flesh-eating monsters (photo), CARNIVORE frequently drenched the front rows of their audiences with blood, brains, and innards, provoking a maniacal reaction like frenzied sharks being taunted with buckets of chum.

Original CARNIVORE guitarist Keith Alexander (later of the short-lived PRIMAL SCREAM project) was killed in a bike accident on July 11, 2005. In addition to playing with CARNIVORE, Alexander spent a three-year stint with Dee Snider of TWISTED SISTER, touring extensively throughout North America and Scandinavia, with some audiences numbering over 20,000.
