Carnage The Executioner isn't afraid to speak his mind. But whether he's sparking controversy on “Minnesota Mean” (2016), or "saving the show by stealing it from you," on “The Show Saver” (2017) even his critical messages are often served with a smile.
Carnage returns with his most thoughtful, ambitious and self-aware statement to date: RAVENOUS.
The multi-angular Ravenous theme runs the gamut from hungry rap metaphors to a more literal dietary epiphany. The bar-heavy braggadocio is thick from the start, but this is not the same Carnage we've heard before.
"Not Just A Name" dissects the symbolism in a violent name, and the insatiable competitiveness that comes with it (see 2012's “Respect The Name” for the first helping), in contrast with his naturally positive demeanor offstage. "Book Me" and "It's Still Work" both offer fresh perspectives on what it means to be a "starving artist" in the music industry today.
Though content-driven and complex in delivery, Ravenous is the most palatable, and most musical release in the Carnage canon. The beats are melodic and energetic, boasting serious hooks to bolster the (mostly) heavy subject matter.
The Ravenous story concludes with a true account of C.XXXL's turn to veganism; a successful remedy for his long-term struggles with his weight and food addiction. It's a moment that would come off preachy in less competent hands, but Carnage puts the listener in his shoes instead.
The album is simultaneously easy to digest, while offering more layers to Carnage as a three-dimensional character. Still, Ravenous is best enjoyed with repeat listens. The arrangements routinely avoid repeated or copy/paste choruses, capitalizing on every opportunity to drive the narrative.
Ravenous is an achievement, not only in songwriting, but personal growth. It is, hands down, the crown jewel in an already enviable body of work.

I have been listening to variations of this album a long time. I remember I was living in a cardboard dumpster when some young guy was like yo dude it's gonna rain come crash on my couch. He played The Many Faces of Oliver Hart for me. I fell in love, I set my favorite track as Rain because we looped it when the rain came. That was one of the early acts of kindness I received in the nearly 20 years I've been homeless. @NomadRoamsFree
Sometimes you come across an artist that is compelled to do what they do.
I appreciate the musicality and the arrangement and the artistry of the songs. He sings and plays like his life depends on it. I appreciate the humanity of the lyrics… Like reading Tortilla Flats, or watching Nobody’s Fool.
Ceschi is a bright star. I’m glad he’s loose in the world. oldtruck
