200 Stab Wounds announce new album ‘Manual Manic Procedures’
200 STAB WOUNDS have announced a new album!
Titled Manual Manic Procedures, the upcoming album from the Cleveland, Ohio-based death metal band is the follow-up to 2021’s Slave To The Scalpel, and is scheduled to be released in June this year, via Metal Blade Records.
The themes on Manual Manic Procedures run the gamut of classic gore-metal horror subject matter, beloved to the band and their rapidly growing audience. “I’ll feel what kind of vibe the song has, and what topic would fit for that particular song,” vocalist/guitarist Steve Buhl explains. “The last song on the new record, Parricide, is about someone going into a nursing home, and just blowing it up. The lyrics are about those type of corporations that don’t really give a fuck about those people. It’s all just a money grab.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Hands Of Eternity. Speaking about the new song, Buhl explains that the song is about being trapped in your own mind, something most of us can relate to. “That song is a good example of where we want to go musically. The heavy riffs are there, but there’s still a lot of good melody. It’s not just crazy fucking blast beats and, ‘riff riff riff.’ It’s more structured, groovy, and melodic, but still heavy. That’s one of my favorites.”
