Carnal is the seventh studio album by the American rock band Nothing More, released on June 28, 2024.[1]

Style and composition

Carnal is primarily a modern rock[2] and alternative metal[1] album, with several songs having more pop influences.[3][4] The album contains ten full-length songs with five shorter interludes featuring samples of speeches by philosopher Alan Watts.[1][3] Similar to the band's previous releases, Carnal deals with themes of fear, hardship, and persistence.[1][3]

Reviews of the album ranged from mixed to positive. Critics disagreed on how experimental the album was. Blabbermouth's Anne Erickson found the album to be "eclectic" in its variety of styles, in keeping with the band’s tendency to experiment.[4] In contrast, Emily Swingle, writing for Metal Hammer, said that the album had less experimentation than previous albums and was "not a huge leap forward" for the band.[1]
