Vocalist and founding member Travis Ryan had this to say about the band’s summer return:

It’s been too long since we played the June festivals in the EU and we look forward to returning! This time the run includes a few fests that fans have been demanding en masse for many years: Download, Copenhell & Graspop! It also sees us making appearances in areas we haven’t been in a long while such as Mystic Festival in Poland, Nummirock in Finland and Rock Imperium in Spain! See you there!

Watch Cattle Decapitation’s’ “Solastalgia” video at THIS LOCATION.

You can find the band’s previously released videos for “We Eat Our Young” HERE, “Scourge Of The Offspring” HERE, and “A Photic Doom” HERE.

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!

“Terrasite” features the artwork by longtime collaborator Wes Benscoter (Vader, Kreator, Bloodbath, Hypocrisy), was produced by Dave Otero (Cephalic Carnage, Allegaeon) and includes Dis Pater of Midnight Odyssey handling piano and synths.
