Carnivora's Feast Interview

 

1.For those that have never heard of you before, can you tell us a little bit about the band?


Carnivora’s Feast formed about 2021-2022 in Kozani/Greece, first started as a project from Zisis. During the recordings the rest of the final line up add their personal touches until we  turned out as Carnivoras Feast.


2.In June you had released your first full length can you tell us a little bit more about the musical style that you went for on the recording?


We base our music to extreme-black metal but every idea we liked just became a part of our sound. 


3.What are some of the lyrical topics and subjects the band has explored so far with the music?


In general, the theme we mainly deal with is the exploitation of man by each authority, the church, etc and the greedy destruction that man has within him.


4.What is the meaning and inspiration behind the name 'Carnivora's  Feast'?


The name Carnivora's Feast has to do with how the world has turned into a funfair of consumption in the same insatiable way that a carnivore consumes its prey.


5.Can you tell us a little bit more about the artwork that is presented on the new album cover?


 The cover artwork is a creation of Christos Gikas. For me it shows how the human emotions are the most diabolical and how you use the name of the Devil to justify human mistakes.


6.Has the band done any live shows or open to the idea?


 We like the idea of playing a live show as long as we will be prepared accordingly, unfortunately during this period there is no adequate time for preparation.


7.Currently you are unsigned, are you looking for a label or have received any interest?


 It's something that interests us but we haven't looked into it just yet, there has been some interest that we have yet to think about.


8.On a worldwide level how has the reaction been to your music by fans of black metal?


 In general, the rather experimental style we have in our music has been passed on to black metal fans. We like that this is being brought out, the main thing we want is to release people's emotions and taboos.


9.What is going on with some of the other bands or musical projects these days that some of the band members are a part of?


 John, besides the other bands he's part of, is working on a personal project, currently recording their debut album. Agis is busy with Kawir promoting their new album and quite a few live shows in the near future. He is also preparing the debut album of his own band Infernal Storm.


10.Where do you see the band heading into musically during the future?


 We want to continue writing music for as long as it makes sense to us and have actually something to say thematically.


11.What are some of the bands or musical styles that have had an influence on your music and also what are you listening to nowadays?


We are definitely greatly influenced by the style of Thorns and later by the extreme avant garde scene, without saying that we represent exactly this style. In general, our influences include a lot of progressive sound. In terms of listening, you will find almost everything the band members are into, from extreme metal to traditional music and from electronic to jazz.


12.Before we wrap up this interview, do you have any final words or thoughts?


Good luck everyone, open your minds and don't allow anyone to set limits for you and define your lives.
