CATTLE DECAPITATION‘s new album "To Serve Man" has been recorded mixed and mastered. Expect this new slab of grinding metallic gore to be in stores July 29th. The German Metal Blade distributor SPV refused to put the album in the stores due to the brutal artwork by Wes Benscoter. This means that "To Serve Man" will be available in Germany only through the usual mailoder companies. www.cattledecapitation.com
