Violence leaks from every seam of 200 Stab Wounds’ claret-stained second album. Viscera pulses from the clenched fists of unflinching opener Hands Of Eternity. Congealed gore drips the Gross Abuse’s pickaxe attack. Hammer smashed bones spike through the 10-ton riffs of the title-track.
But the sonic psycopathy is marshalled with surgical precision this time out. If 2021’s Slave To The Scalpel often felt like the work of sickos happy to luxuriate in the rot, these nine songs are the result years on the road learning the fastest way to any listener’s heart is right through the ribcage.
Much has been made of shared values between the worlds of death metal and hardcore recently, with the Cleveland killers at the serrated edge of that chaotic crossover. Rather than stitching two-step rhythms and cement-mixer breakdowns into their music, though, 200SW steer into hardcore’s hit-and-run sensibility. Release The Stench does its business – turning your stomach inside-out – in a speedy 151 seconds. Flesh From Within does something similar, adding a twangy 30-second outro to catch breath and gather guts before the next onslaught. Even creepy two-part pivot Led To The Chamber / Liquefied balances synthy atmospherics and slicing six-strings with zero bagginess.
