Carnage were an influential Swedish death metal band and a precursor to Dismember, formed by Michael Amott and Johan Liiva in 1988. The band released only one album before dissolving in 1990.
Carnage was founded as “Global Carnage” at the end of 1988 by Michael Amott and Johan Liiva, but quickly renamed themselves to Carnage. The band released two widely traded cassette demos, The Day Man Lost, and Infestation of Evil in 1989. Carnage was plagued by lineup changes, eventually releasing their only album Dark Recollections in 1990, featuring Michael Amott as the sole founding member. By the time the album hit the streets, the band was broken up for good. The album was originally released as a split CD with Cadaver’s Hallucinating Anxiety on Necrosis Records,a subdivision of Earache Records, and was re-released with bonus tracks in 2000.
Michael Amott went on to join Carcass, and later form Arch Enemy (with Johan Liiva) and Spiritual Beggars. Matti Kärki, David Blomqvist and Fred Estby went on to reform Dismember.

You probably are. I usually love Swedeath demos, but I couldn't take more than five minutes of The Day Man Lost.

I must be the only one who prefers the demos. Far better than the album. Johan Liiva makes a BIG difference.

Aye. It amazes me that Michael Amott could perform so well in Carnage yet go on to start Arch Enemy.

Det är då fan att man inte drog till Rinkeby 89 och kollade på Carnage, en sån där spelning man ångrar att man inte åkte till.
