When death metal bands write about raping women and murdering people, they’re joking. It’s called gory humor. These guys are transparently and without question trying to tell us that we are vile creatures because we eat other living things. Spreading a doctrine and claiming it to be absolute truth, that’s called fascism. They do it in interviews too. Their album is called “Humanure”, and they’re completely serious. I just can’t respect people who use music as a tool to shove doctrine down my throat. I can give you pages and pages of lyrics, in fact just about all of their lyrics, if that song isn’t obvious enough, which it is.

OK, maybe “fascist” was a little harsh. I was drunk when I wrote that last post. I’m not trying to start shit, I just don’t like their music that much and I especially don’t like being told not to eat meat, which is a perfectly natural thing for human beings to do. And whenever I try to listen to Cattle Decapitation, especially with a lyrics sheet, I feel like I’m being insulted for my beliefs. They definitely have certain lyrics like “playing king of the hill”, that sound like they’re saying the food chain (i.e. humans on top) is wrong. And that is just plain stupid, in my opinion. Maybe I’m interpreting it wrong, but their artwork and activist standpoints in interviews don’t exactly help “open my mind”. I have no problem with people protesting that livestock should be treated more humanely, but it always seems to me like CD is taking a PETA standpoint and saying there should be no livestock. It’s just my opinion, I’m not claiming anything to be factual. And I really don’t like Waco Jesus.
