Band-mates aren't obviously a part of the pale brunette trope without explaining that they all dyed their hair, they did not have covers on every album, so I added the exception. And also I corrected the bit about werewolves in wolf moon, which Peter clarified in an interview with Kerrang! magazine in 1996

The 1994 reissue also includes a cover of BlackSabbath 's "Paranoid" as an extra track, which was recorded that year and rejected from the Nativity In Black Tribute album in favour of the group's version of "Black Sabbath" (which also has an alternate version called "From The Satanic Perspective").

** "Cinnamon Girl" (originally by NeilYoung ) on October Rust.

* DolledUpInstallment: ''Slow, Deep and Hard'' consists mostly of material Carnivore didn't get around to recording. It wasn't in fact, even intended as an album to start with - it was originally released as a demo tape under the Type O's previous name Repulsion. Roadrunner bought the rights off the group, then released it as their debut whilst what the group thought was the actual album was being recorded (hence why the group repurposed those rerecordings and newer tracks as the fake live album "The Origin Of The Feces").

* UpdatedRerelease: The group put a digipak version out of Bloody Kisses which was intentionally worse than the original.It removed the tracks "Kill All The White People", "We Hate Everyone" due to people taking the lyrics too literally, as well as the interludes, changed to an almost completely different track order (closing with the single Black No 1), and changed the cover to make it look like a bootleg. The only plus was that it added the previously omitted track "Suspended In Dusk", although this also appeared on the "Christian Woman" single.

** "Dead Again" is a mix of all the group's styles, as it returns to the thrash-punk of ''Slow Deep And Hard'' whilst using a lot of progginess of ''Bloody Kisses" and the melodicism of "October Rust" and some of the guitar tone from "World Coming Down". It also has the longest song in their discography in the over 14-minute long "These Three Things".
