"Carnivoracity" is an EP release by Spanish death metal act Avulsed. The EP was released through Malodorous Mangled Innards Records in June 1994. It follows the release of several demo recordings which Avulsed released in 1992 and 1993 since they formed in 1991. The EP features two studio tracks written by Avulsed and a cover of "Demoniac Possession" by Chilean death/thrash metal act Pentagram (not the US doom metal act).

Stylistically the material is a continuation of the old school death metal style found on the May 1993 "Deformed Beyond Belief" demo. It´s grim, morbid, and savage sounding old school death metal with frontman Dave Rotten´s unintelligible growling vocals in front. The Pentragram cover is naturally a little more thrashy, but Avulsed give it the death metal twist. The music features both mid-paced, faster-paced, and doomy parts, and the 8:14 minutes long title track even features some eerie sounding atmosphere enhancing keyboards during the doomy middle part of the song.

"Carnivoracity" features a raw, brutal, and effective sounding production job, and this is definitely a case where the sound production suits the material. Upon conclusion "Carnivoracity" is a good quality old school death metal release and a 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
