I don't think it's necessarily that a concept album is what elevates a record. It's six feet under did one it would still be dog shit. I do enjoy the detail and story telling that can happen in a heavily themed record but it's awesome because the band are brilliant

After three listens, Terrasite is easily a highlight of the year so far. Nothing beats The Anthropocene Extinction for me but there are moments, quite a few of them really, in this new album that are among the best they've ever sounded. I think what I loved the most about it is how comfortable they sound doing their thing while still pushing the envelope and finessing their craft, you can tell they've become real masters of their trade.
@berzerkinglemur6534 Жыл бұрын
[1:22] Shit, man, I just realized Cattle Decapitation has so much mixed genres that my brain is smoking. As for the genre drawer, I shouldn't like it. But I liked "Death Atlas" and I like the new album even more. Without a doubt, this is one of the albums of the year for me.

This album is a 5/5 for me. It takes the best parts of the last three: The brutality and technicality of Monolith, the nihilistic atmosphere of Anthropocene and the progressive melodic approach of Death Atlas. I personally love the second half of the album more than the first as it is more atmospheric and diverse. The finale Just Another Body blew me away. Travis actual doomy clean vocals are just magnificent.

I always have a lot of love and appreciation for this band. Travis' vocals are disgusting and sick yet amazingly projected as well as the outstanding work of the rhythmic and versatile players from the rest of the band. This album brings another separate monster of music and decide to make more great ideas while the intensity brought its chaos that's as unapologetic as possible. Also the lyrics are one of the best things about the band too, like other ones of Napalm Death and Venom Prison in a relevant and well thought of descriptions. Amazing album and of the favourites of the year.

Terrasite is sick. I feel like my friend and I were the only people who were slightly disappointed by Death Atlas, I like a lot of things about the album, but it felt like it was missing something that the previous 3 albums had. Terrasite fixes most of my complaints about Death Atlas, most notably there are no interludes. Death Atlas felt too predictable. Also the singing mutant vocals felt overused and forced, but it strikes a nice balance on Terrasite. I find the mutant vocals are cool, but I prefer when they're used more sparingly as it feels more impactful. There are a couple of tracks with actual singing which is cool because there's more vocal variety. I'd give Death Atlas a 7, but Terrasite a 9. I feel like it improves on Death Atlas in every single way. There are moments that feel even more melancholic and grim than Death Atlas. I've only heard their last five albums, but I'd probably rank them as Anthropocene Extinction > Monolith of Inhumanity > Terrasite > Harvest Floor > Death Atlas

Come to find out, according to discogs, it's 45rpm. I've never heard of big records being played at this higher speed but it sounds great, like it was supposed to I guess 😅 Anyone else run into this?

It's a great record for sure! Especially from Dead End Residents onward, imo. They really have mastered placing memorable melodic hooks into these brutally fast songs. I still think Monolith is my favourite due to how it feels like it could derail at any moment, but can't deny the band has been focusing more and more on their vision since then. Probably a Top 5 of 2023 contender and we've already been spoiled this year so far

Between Cattle Decaps "Terrasite" and the soon to be released, The Oceans "Holocene" coming out on May 19th(which funny enough is the day before my birthday.), I gotta say, these two are and are gonna be the albums of the year for me. I heard 4 tracks already from Holocene and I'm already digging the prog metal, but sort of electronic style they got going on. Either way, I'm loving all this!
