Description: | The Black Veils write angry and miserable post-punk songs and ??Carnage? is their 3rd
studio Album, following up on the highly regarded, 3 digital EPs, released through Icy
Cold ??Hyenas? (2020), ??Lamoulamort? and ??Rabbits? (both 2021).
It??s a rough and direct post-punk record, recorded and mixed without seeking perfection,
in order to re-create the band??s ??live? attitude in studio. A violent bass sound, sharp guitars,
dynamic vocals and relentless drums: this time the band wanted to create a ??choral? album
with a far more spontaneous and aggressive sound.
Carnage takes inspiration from The Black Veils?? typical imaginary: (a lot of) cinema, a bit
of existentialism, the effects of insomnia and a huge dose of black humour. This might also
mark the band??s first record that openly reflects on the current social transformations.
Carnage is a concept about the roles of the victim and the oppressor: positions which are
always interchangeable in all kind of relationships.
Songs like ??See You at My Funeral?, ??Hyenas?, ??This is going to hurt?, ??Death by Arrogance?
and ??Cities on Fire? reflect about the political manipulations which constantly make the weaker
groups of the population fighting against each other, in order to leave the privileged
untouched. Songs like ??Rabbits?, ??Lamourlamort?, ??Phantom Limb Syndrome? and ??September
kills? play with the incommunicability and the ambiguities of the victim-oppressor roles: a
sarcastic and grotesque narration from the intimate side.
