Cleveland death metal band 200 Stab Wounds have announced their sophomore album, Manual Manic Procedures will be out on June 28th through Metal Blade Records. Along with the news, the band dropped the video for the lead single, “Hands Of Eternity“.
Steve Buhl, the band’s vocalist/guitarist offered the following regarding the direction of the music:
“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.”
Buhl, offered the following regarding the album itself:
“I’ll feel what kind of vibe the song has, and what topic would fit for that particular song. 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.”
