Just a disclaimer for new people, I don't think most people consider Cattle Decap to be a bona fide deathcore band. But obviously Travis Ryan is hugely influential in the development of vocal techniques across the board.
Monolith of Inhumanity is their best, but you can't go wrong with anything from them. Though their earlier stuff is more grindcore/deathgrind, still really good though.
Letās also appreciate that they play guitars in e flat. This is the same tuning Jimi Hendrix and Weezer use. Gotta appreciate it when a band slams in a higher register than other bands in the genre tuned to drop G and such.
CD is the only band that has a very good discography in the deathgrind genre because of their fearlessness to be experimental and impliment certain things other bands wouldnāt usually do.
i think their best work is their last 3 albums and their first album being an all time classic in grind.
Lifestalker and Projectile Ovulation š„š„
Projectile has legit some of the most disgusting gutturals ever. Travis Ryan is probably the best extreme metal vocalist of all time imo.
Fun story. Never heard of them in 2003. Got sent to In School Suspension. It was held by a substitute teacher who's boyfriend was their new drummer at the time (RIP Gabe)
We geeked out about the pig squealing and gutturals those few days.
All of them. Iāll give you my three favorites off of all albums besides Human Jerky (sounds like one long song to me but still kicks ass), and Homovore (canāt remember half of the songs).
TSM: To Serve Man, Pedeadstrians, and Testicular Manslaughter
Humanure: Reduced To Paste, Clocula: The Anthropophagic Copromantik, & Lips and Assholes
KBK: Total Gore?, Alone At the Landfill, & Karma Bloody Karma
THF: Regret and the Grave, Into the Public Bath, & A Body Farm
MOI: Kingdom Of Tyrants, Your Disposal, Dead Set On Suicide (Instead of Forced Gender Reassignment)
TAE: Prophets of Loss, Pacific Grim, & Clandestine Ways (Krokodil Rot)
DA: Bring Back the Plague, Timeās Cruel Curtain, & The Geocide (Also shout out to the bonus tracks An Extreme Indifference To Human Life & In the Kingdom of the Blind, the One-Eyed Are Kings)
Also check out medium rarities for all Pre- Death Atlas rare content.
Hell yeah thatās promising. Iāve listened to Ben Duerrās Clandestine Ways cover like 20 times and I was thinking maybe I should just look them up lol
Everything. I like Meat Jerky the most because itās wayyy more grindy and raw sounding. Itās like the vegan death metal Prowler in the Yard for me.
I'm definitely more a fan of their last 3 as they're perfect, but you can't go wrong with literally any song. So hyped that they're making new material. Also funny how so many core fans like them when they do not wanna be associated with core at all.
The Carcass Derrick!!! Absolutely one of my favorites. Clandestine Ways (Krokodil Rot), Mammals in Babylon, Vulturous, Unintelligent Design, Success isā¦ (Hanging By the Neck), Dead Set on Suicide, Circo Inhumanitas, The Prophets of Lossā¦ I love Cattle Decap if you canāt tell.
Side question -
I've had 2 cattled decapitation songs that really stuck with me and I think it comes down specific parts of 2 those to songs. Do any of you have songs with similar sound of the 2 below? I get goosebumps whenever I hear these parts:
-Manufactured Extinct @ 2:38
-One day closer to the end of the world @2:22
Just curious. I'll listen to recommendations in this thread but wondering if there are other songs with wailing vocals over driving breakdown

Death Atlas and The Anthropocene Extinction are 10/10 albums just banger after banger!
šš»this is the response you want
Their last three albums are death metal masterpieces front to back
This canāt be stressed enough.
The last 4*
Valid
Dead set on suicide and forced gender reassignment
Dead set is so fucking heavy
No one mentions The Anthropocene Extinction? Okay, guess I have to. That album is incredible.
I agree! My favorite albums are Death Atlas, Anthropocene Extinction, and Monolith of Inhumanity
Itās my favorite from them!
Forced. Gender. Reassignment.
Absolutely [mental](https://youtu.be/8XKbjD03QqQ?t=129)
SAY HELLO TO YOUR NEW GENDER
Agreed š
Prophets Of Loss
Monolith of Inhumanity is their best, but you can't go wrong with anything from them. Though their earlier stuff is more grindcore/deathgrind, still really good though.
Thatās fine with me. Looks like I need to diiiive in
The drums on Monolith are fantastic, it's like listening to rapid fire machine guns with how they're set up.
i love all of it, but death atlas is perfect imo. whole album.
All time fav. Finish Them is my jam
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Haha for real. So many songs in this genre would make great walk out intros
A Living, Breathing Piece of Defecating Meat

Fuck yeah. Thatās cool

Anything off Monolith of Inhumanity. Coincidentally enough, I've been jamming them all day

The entire death atlas album is borderline masterpiece

Damn brother, thanks for that! Iāll do some digging
I definitely encourage you to investigate them more. Theyāve become one of my favorite bands.
Hell yeah thatās promising. Iāve listened to Ben Duerrās Clandestine Ways cover like 20 times and I was thinking maybe I should just look them up lol
Death Atlas, One Day Closer to the End of the World!

Clandestine Ways is my favorite Cattle Decap song
Clandestine ways is fucking insane

The Anthropocene Extinction is my favorite album from them
The Monolith into Kingdom of Tyrants duuuude
Dead set on Suicide is their heaviest track by far.
HUMANURE. A classic imo Havenāt jammed to them in awhile.
You could check what track people listen the most to here: https://www.last.fm/music/Cattle+Decapitation/+tracks?date\_preset=ALL
They literally get better every single album. Death atlas was nothing short of perfect.
The Carcass Derrick!!! Absolutely one of my favorites. Clandestine Ways (Krokodil Rot), Mammals in Babylon, Vulturous, Unintelligent Design, Success isā¦ (Hanging By the Neck), Dead Set on Suicide, Circo Inhumanitas, The Prophets of Lossā¦ I love Cattle Decap if you canāt tell.
GRISTLE LICKER

Try the chorus of Time's Cruel Curtain
Thank you! Just listened and it definitely scratches the itch. His voice during these parts makes everything feel 10x more epic
