CATTLE DECAPITATION is very pleased to celebrate the two-year anniversary of their monstrous tenth studio album, Terrasite, with a two-hour “making of” documentary, From This Flesh: A Cattle Decapitation Story.
The documentary was shot, directed, and edited by Australian videographer Nicholas VanVidler who produced the band’s 2021-released “Finish Them” music video. VanVidler captured the entire Terrasite recording process from beginning to end and has spent the last two years piecing together the footage. The film not only celebrates Terrasite, but inadvertently examines the history of the band from inception.
Comments vocalist Travis Ryan, “Our buddy Nick VanVidler (NJV Media, Body Prison) went to make a studio documentary about Terrasite and what came out was more of an extremely introspective look into the band as a whole with a specificity on how we write and record albums. It’s insightful, intense, funny, sad, unfiltered, immersive, and if you’re a longtime true fan of the band, you gotta see this thing.”
Next month, CATTLE DECAPITATION will return to Europe on a three week run of headlining shows and festival appearances. See all confirmed dates below.

Though many bands have tried, no one articulates the real apocalypse humanity is facing as vividly and succinctly as CATTLE DECAPITATION. With 2019’s Death Atlas, they reached the apex of this, perhaps leading some to believe they had no place left to go beyond such an achievement, but alas, the band returned with Terrasite, which is as bold a statement as they have ever made. Roaring to life with the savage yet hauntingly melodic “Terrasitic Adaptation” and advancing through the likes of the relentless “We Eat Our Young” and culminating with the ten-plus minutes of “Just Another Body,” Terrasite is an album that constantly shifts dynamics and demands a variety of emotional responses. The record crushed Billboard charts upon its first week of release, earning the #2 position on the Current Hard Music Albums chart, #3 on the Current Independent Albums chart, #4 on the Rock Albums chart and more!
