**Desecrate the Faith** is a Houston, Texas-based death metal outfit known for their unrelenting, groove-heavy brutality and blasphemous lyrical themes. Formed in 2010, the band has carved out a niche in the underground with their raw, riff-driven sound that nods to old-school death metal while embracing modern ferocity. Fronted by guttural vocalist Travis Ryan (no relation to Cattle Decapitation’s frontman), they’ve built a reputation for pulverizing live shows and albums like *III* (2023), which showcase their penchant for pummeling drums, sinister guitar work, and unapologetically anti-religious imagery.
Recent releases like *Unholy Infestation* and *Disfigured Arrangement* solidify their status as stalwarts of the Texas extreme metal scene, blending technical precision with chaotic aggression. While they’ve flown under the mainstream radar, Desecrate the Faith remains a cult favorite for fans of bands like Devourment or Disgorge, delivering music that’s as merciless as it is cathartic. Keep an eye on these guys if you’re into unfiltered, no-frills death metal that hits like a sledgehammer.
