Sounds Of Decay
''Sounds of Decay'' is a three-song EP released by Katatonia in 1997. The front cover is a screenshot of a decrepit god, taken from the movie '' Begotten''.

This release is the last Katatonia material to feature any death metal-elements, it’s also Åkerfeldt’s final collaboration with the group. A fourth song named "Untrue" was also recorded in the studio session, but it did not end up on the original release.
