History

Formation and early recordings (2005–2006)

Carnifex was founded in December 2005 in Fallbrook, California. They debuted their career with a self-titled EP, which was released on May 18, 2006. It features five tracks and was distributed through Enclave Records. In September 2006, Rick James and Kevin Vargas left the band. Shortly thereafter, Steve McMahon joined on bass and Travis Whiting joined on guitars.

Carnifex recorded an EP before the end of 2006 titled Love Lies in Ashes , which was released through Acropolisrpm Records on March 13, 2007. [2] It was sold exclusively at shows as well as online stores such as iTunes before the group began work on their full-length debut album. [3]

Dead in My Arms (2007–2008)

After their release of Love Lies in Ashes , Carnifex was signed to underground label This City Is Burning Records in March 2007, and they recorded their debut full length Dead in My Arms , with yet another member change. The band, though, was still a four-piece outfit, with current guitarist Cory Arford replacing Travis Whiting in March 2007. The line-up during the recording of Dead in My Arms was Scott Lewis (vocals), Shawn Cameron (drums and keyboards), Steve McMahon (bass) and Cory Arford (guitars).

Dead in My Arms was released on July 12, 2007. Carnifex began touring full-time with the record's release. Touring guitarist Jake Anderson was recruited as a lead guitarist from July to November 2007. During this time, the band toured with groups such as Emmure, Whitechapel, and MyChildren MyBride, For Today, 12:08, among others. The reasonable success of Dead in My Arms, and the prevalence of the deathcore genre as a whole, attracted the attention of Victory Records. In November 2007, after the departure of Steve McMahon and Jake Anderson, Carnifex signed a deal with Victory with now current members Fred Calderon (bass) and Ryan Gudmunds (lead guitar).

The Diseased and the Poisoned (2008–2009)

Carnifex's second album, The Diseased and the Poisoned , was released on June 24, 2008, and reached No. 19 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers Chart. [4] Since the release of The Diseased and the Poisoned, Carnifex toured over 22 countries with such bands as The Black Dahlia Murder, Despised Icon, Obituary, Unleashed, Finntroll, Warbringer, Parkway Drive, Unearth, Architects, Whitechapel, Protest the Hero, Bleeding Through, Darkest Hour, and Impending Doom.

Hell Chose Me and Until I Feel Nothing (2009–2012)

On November 28, 2009, Carnifex finished recording their third full-length album Hell Chose Me , which was released on February 16, 2010. [5] The record sold more than 3,100 copies in its first week within the United States. [6] The group played the 2010 Summer Slaughter Tour in support of the album, and they toured with Unearth, All That Remains, and As I Lay Dying in September 2010. [7] On January 26, 2011, vocalist Lewis announced that the band were writing a new record. "We've been working hard on the new record. We know we have to top Hell Chose Me and were NOT letting you down! Heavier, darker and more pissed in every way[ sic ]." [6] On February 3, 2011, Carnifex embarked on a full United States tour dubbed the Names Mean Nothing Tour, during which the band was supported by Oceano, The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza, and Within the Ruins. [8] On August 24, 2011, Lewis announced that the title for the new album would be Until I Feel Nothing . He stated that its sound was inspired while listening to the band's three studio albums and he felt like combining all of its style in one record. [9]

On October 9, 2012, Lewis announced that the band would be playing their last three shows in California before an indefinite hiatus. He specifically stated that all members were still current and no one had departed from the group. Lewis also stated that he was unsure of the band's future. Through December 21 to December 23, 2012, the band played three extra shows in California. [10] During the hiatus, Cameron started the symphonic metal band Unicorn Death, in which he brought his wife Diana to be a part.

A European tour then proceeded with Fallujah and Boris the Blade joining as supports.

Slow Death and World War X (2016–2021)

The band's sixth studio album Slow Death was released on August 5, 2016. To support the new album, Carnifex joined Cannibal Corpse on the 10th annual Summer Slaughter Tour in North America, as well as Knotfest/Ozzfest. Also, two music videos were released on YouTube to promote the album, the first being "Drown me in Blood" and the second being "Slow Death."

The band also embarked on the Straight Outta Hell Tour during the autumn of the same year with the deathcore bands Oceano, Whitechapel, and Suicide Silence. [14] In early 2017, Carnifex did a headliner across the United States in support of Slow Death. Despised Icon co-headlined with the band on certain dates. Fallujah, Rings of Saturn, Lorna Shore and She Must Burn all joined up as support. [15] Carnifex then joined up on the Vans Warped Tour in the Summer of 2017 alongside groups like Hatebreed and GWAR on the Monster Mutant Stages. [16] Carnifex then headlined the Chaos & Carnage tour in the Spring of 2018. Oceano, Winds of Plague, Archspire, Spite, Shadow of Intent, Buried Above Ground and Widowmaker all joined up on the tour.

Music style, influences and lyrical themes

Critics noted Carnifex's growing influence from black metal starting with their Until I Feel Nothing album. 20170422 Oberhausen Impericon Carnifex 0059.jpg
Critics noted Carnifex's growing influence from black metal starting with their Until I Feel Nothing album.

Carnifex play an extreme metal musical style known as deathcore, which is a hybrid of the genres death metal and metalcore. [10] [21] [22] [23] The band cites Dying Fetus, Dark Funeral, [24] Slayer, [25] Cannibal Corpse, The Black Dahlia Murder, Immolation, Dååth, [26] Dissection, In Flames, and Carcass as their main influences. [27]

Their third album Hell Chose Me features a sound relating more to death metal along with some black metal influences, as well as some aspects that the band did not visit before, such as including choruses and guitar solos into their songs. [28] However, the band's fourth studio album, Until I Feel Nothing , features much more eccentric influences, even into the realm of black metal with its themes and atmospheric elements. [29] [30] On the album, the band emphasized their black metal influences more, such as Mayhem, Burzum, Emperor, Watain, Bathory, and Cradle of Filth, among others. [31]

In an interview with vocalist Scott Lewis about the "deathcore" label, he stated, "We're not one of those bands trying to escape the banner of deathcore. I know a lot of bands try and act like they have a big problem with that, but if you listen to their music, they are very 'deathcore.'" [28]

Lyrical themes

Carnifex's lyrics are all based around negative themes. Lead vocalist Scott Lewis has stated the theme of Carnifex will always be negative even when the state of mind he is in is positive. [32] The band's first album Dead in My Arms mainly concerns heartbreak and self-harm, while all the albums by the band reference lyrics about depression, betrayal, hopelessness, anger, and hatred. [33]

I always have written from a personal perspective. My personal life for the last few years really fell apart. Some of that was due to the nature on being in a full-time touring band and the amount of strain it puts on your life back home. Part of that was due to keeping some really damaging people in my life a lot longer than I should have.
