They have built up a steady following through gigging intensely. Carnage Inc. have released an EP and a full album in the form of <em>Tenebris,<\/em> which was unleashed in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The band\u2019s latest effort is a self-titled EP consisting of five tracks of molten metal. Carnage Inc. sounds like a combination of early Anthrax, Exodus and Testament, and there are tinges of more traditional heavy metal; Judas Priest, Savatage and Queensryche come to mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some absolute bangers on display here. The band are more than competent musicians, and they can write a metal tune or two. Pounding double kick drums, crunchy riffs and tasty guitar solos are the order of the day. The tracks are well constructed with great production. <em>Epik<\/em> is my favourite song on the EP. It reminds me of <em>Fistful of Metal<\/em> era of Anthrax with its raw production and full-on headbanging effect. I\u2019ve played the EP many times since sitting down to review it. It really is fantastic. I\u2019m off to check more of Carnage Inc.\u2019s back catalogue!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you love your \u201880s metal, be sure to check out Carnage Inc. and you\u2019ll see that thrash is alive and thriving. Horns up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Buy <a href=\"https:\/\/carnageincindia.bandcamp.com\/album\/tenebris\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/carnageincindia.bandcamp.com\/album\/tenebris\">Here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Author: Kenny Kendrick<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Indian thrash mongers Carnage Inc. have been around since 2011.
