Additional notes
The band has a quite large fanbase among animal rights/liberation supporters. The members are ideologically pro-animal/environment/earth and strongly anti-human. The band originally consisted of all vegetarians, but Josh Elmore and Travis Ryan are the only vegetarians of the band now.
Cattle Decapitation started as a three-piece that shortly added Ryan after their then guitar player Scott Miller allegedly "vanished" without the other members knowing anything of his whereabouts. Ryan joined before the band recorded their Ten Torments of the Damned demo and even had the record cover sleeves delivered. He did not perform on the demo, however.
