Cattle Decapitation are celebrating the two-year anniversary of their tenth studio album, Terrasite, looking behind the scenes with their new documentary, From This Flesh: A Cattle Decapitation Story. It 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, inadvertently examining the history of the band from inception. Watch it below.

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. Tickets are on sale now at http://lnk.to/CATTLE-EUSUMMER2025

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, in 2023 the band returned with Terrasite, which is as bold a statement as they have ever made. It’s an album that constantly shifts dynamics and demands a variety of emotional responses. Terrasite 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 and appeared on multiple Year End List both stateside and abroad. Terrasite features 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.
