Carnage collaborate with Australian DJ Timmy Trumpet and American DJ KSHMR in “Toca” as the first promotional single released on 10 July 2015.
“November Skies” was released on 9 October 2015 as the second promotional single. This is a collaboration with Tomas Barford featuring vocals of Nina Kinert.
Robert Salusbury of Outloud Culture has stated that "Carnage’s debut album descends further and further into unoriginality and is a complete travesty that makes it all too clear that Carnage has swiftly gone from a pioneer of the hardstyle scene, producing some of the liveliest tracks that Spinnin’ Records has seen, to an embarrassing dinosaur of the EDM scene."[5]
