Carnal Grief is a Swedish band formed in Arboga in 1997 by Johan Olsen, Johan Lindgren and Henrik Brander who had been playing in a lot of local bands together. They quickly recruited Johan Larsson to handle a second guitar and Jonas Carlsson to handle the vocal efforts. After the completion of the line-up the band took the name Carnal Grief (from the song "Carnal Forge" by Carcass and the EP "Gardens of Grief" by At the gates).

Carnal Grief was started as a straight on melodic death metal band but has since the two record releases evolved into more of a cross-over act with the mix of Heavy Metal and Death Metal.

They have recorded two albums and three demos.
