Carpathian Forest played their first concert in 1998 at the Quart Festival, Kristiansand Norway supporting Immortal and Satyricon. This saw the introduction of Vrangsinn. A short studio session followed, with Tchort and Kobro being made permanent members. The following EP was called He's Turning Blue, followed by the albums Strange Old Brew and Morbid Fascination of Death - these were both recorded at the same time and were produced by Terje Refsnes at Sound Suite studio in Sandnes. Nordavind left the band after this studio session due to personal issues with Tchort being promoted to guitarist. Vrangsinn was promoted to bass, and Blood Pervertor to keyboard duties for following sessions and tours.[1]
With this lineup, the band recorded their fourth album, Defending the Throne of Evil, released by Season of Mist. This album was the first to feature symphonic sounds, as witnessed with "It's Darker than You Think". The album was generally well-received.
The following year, Carpathian Forest made two releases - We're Going to Hollywood for This, a live DVD, the title of which was a play on their compilation album We're Going to Hell for This, and another compilation entitled Skjend Hans Lik, which featured many new tracks, as well as some remastered ones from Bloodlust and Perversion.
The band's most recent release was in 2006, with Fuck You All!!!!, an album which has similar structures to Black Shining Leather.
The band last played live at the Inferno Festival in 2009, and confirmed rumors that a new album was in the works.

Put to Sleep Like a Sick Animal!!!
Carpathian Forest Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He knows the winds
He knows the woods and the trees
Firmly held by the strongest chains
He lurks in the evening mist
An earthly demon-made soul
Declaring destruction of god
Destruction and war
Hhe lurks the travellers to their death
He put a nail in your coffin
Forever and ever till the end of time
And he will always be
On top of the world!!!
Our lifeless faces of death
You will walk the darkest path
And find no inner peace
The blackest light of true evil
Torture me with a thousand razors
Torment me no further, kill me now
This is the day of suffering
This is the day I see you die
Get me out of this fucking hellhole
I can't stand the fucking smell
I can't stand your hypocrisy
You're going to hell
Living in fear, your death is tailor-made
Drowned in a pool of snot, tears and misery
You haven't seen the light
The christians were wrong!!!
There is no comfort in dying
There is no peace in death
You are worth nothing
Put to sleep like a sick animal
Put to sleep like a sick animal
The lyrics to Carpathian Forest's song "Put to Sleep Like a Sick Animal!!!" depict a dark and menacing image of a powerful entity, who has been strengthened by centuries of existence and possesses intimate knowledge of the wilderness. The being is bound by powerful chains, patiently awaiting the arrival of nightfall to prey on unsuspecting victims. Described as an "earthly demon-made soul," it proclaims its desire for destruction, war, and the annihilation of gods. It takes pleasure in causing the demise of those it encounters, symbolized by the haunting image of putting a nail in their coffin. The lyrics also delve into themes of suffering, desperation, and the absence of peace, with references to torment and a desire for release from the agony. Ultimately, the song suggests that death is an empty, comfortless state, likening it to being put to sleep like a sick animal.
