Carnivore "Retaliation (2001 Reissue, Remastered, USA, Roadrunner Records, RR 8746-2)"

Retaliation is the second and final studio album by American crossover thrash band Carnivore, released in 1987 by Roadrunner Records. It was later released on CD in 1991 without tracks 4 and 9. It was re-issued with a different cover on January 23, 2001, containing three demo tracks from the previous album.
