On Black Friday 2019 (November 29th), CATTLE DECAPITATION will release their long-awaited 9th studio album, Death Atlas, via Metal Blade Records. Listen to the new single, “Bring Back the Plague”, here:

The previously released track, “One Day Closer to the End of the World”, can be heard at: metalblade.com/cattledecapitation – where Death Atlas can also be pre-ordered.

Fans can also enter now for a chance to win a limited edition signed collector’s bundle by pre-saving Death Atlas on Spotify or Apple Music! The collector’s bundle is limited to 300 copies and includes: 2LP “Blood Moon” vinyl, CD, cassette, signed 11″ x 17″ lithograph, custom Death Atlas wall clock, giant 42″ x 64″ post-apocalyptic wall map, album art t-shirt. The album will be automatically added to your Spotify or Apple Music collection on street date for immediate listening. Enter here: metalblade.com/cattledecapitation

Cattle Decapitation have never shied away from confronting the awfulness wrought upon the natural world by the human race, and Death Atlas is their bleakest offering to date. The cover art says it all: a stooped, skeletal Grim Reaper carrying the burnt-out husk of our planet on his back. “The core concept of this record is humanity’s insignificance despite what we’ve convinced ourselves,” explains vocalist Travis Ryan. “That’s kind of why this album cover takes place in space, to remind you that ‘the universe always finds a way to purge’. In the grand scheme of things, our species is merely a fleeting thought.” This imagery is backed up with a ferocious soundtrack, which includes elements of death metal, grindcore, black metal, sludge, doom, drone – with Ryan’s vocals broader and more fully realized than ever before.

Produced once again by Dave Otero (flatlineaudio.com), Death Atlas also features a number of guests: Laure Le Prunenec (Igorrr, Ricinn), Riccardo Conforti (Void of Silence), Dis Pater (Midnight Odyssey), Jon Fishman (Phish) – plus, brass instrumentalists from Ottone Pesante. The end result of these experimentations and collaborations is one of the most devastating records of 2019, and it demands an emotional response.

As the band prepares to tour and hopefully reach places they have yet play, what Ryan wants listeners to take away from Death Atlas is clear: “I want people to be shocked into thinking more about their futures, their loved ones, the pain they’re potentially subjecting their future generations to. Everyone just seems to live in the now with no care for tomorrow, and that’s incorrect thinking, as far as today goes. Don’t make tomorrow a cancelled check.”

On Black Friday 2019 (November 29th), CATTLE DECAPITATION will release their long-awaited 9th studio album, Death Atlas, via Metal Blade Records. Vocalist Travis Ryan comments: “We have crafted what we feel is our strongest album to date and we are really looking forward to bringing a couple of the tracks off of it to lacerate your eardrums on this upcoming Summer Slaughter Tour! Fans soon will witness the culmination of this last year’s blood, sweat and tears honed to a devastating, brutal and impactful audio document that I feel will resonate with fans of the last few records for years to come. Musically and lyrically, there is a lot of grief, anger, hate, passion and emotion poured into this one and we have found these can be excellent ingredients for extreme metal. We are once again rejuvenated and ready to spread the death and despair over this sphere that is perpetually being torn apart by us insignificants. There is no map to guide you out of this one – ‘Death Atlas‘ is coming!”

Produced by Dave Otero (flatlineaudio.com), Death Atlas will be available for pre-order starting tomorrow (July 19th), exclusively at the 2019 Summer Slaughter Tour – which will see Cattle Decapitation close each show! To pre-order Death Atlas, please visit the Cattle Decapitation merch table, where a special autographed laminate (plus t-shirt) can be purchased that includes a copy of the CD or digital download of the album on November 29th. All other physical and digital pre-orders will available starting September 5th.
