Cattle Decapitation: The Anthropocene Extinction

LP Record With "Monolith Of Inhumanity", Cattle Decapitation arrived with a bang, cementing their position at the extreme end of the death metal spectrum. They expanded their sound and added a little more melody without sacrificing any intensity. Ryan's bleak lyrics, concept-driven as always, describe what will happen to humanity if it continues to exploit the planet. On "The Anthropocene Extinction", he goes even further, exploring a world post-ecological disaster, with a main focus on the Pacific Ocean. "The Anthropocene Extinction is set in a world we've destroyed, and it's literally the most depressing album I've ever written lyrics for."
