NOWHERE2RUN, the production company of Code Orange’s Jami Morgan and Eric Balderose, produced the new 200 STAB WOUNDS video for ‘Sweet Suicide.’ The single appears on Lowest Form, scheduled for release February 19, 2027 through Metal Blade Records.
The band places the song’s subject matter alongside its musical weight: ‘This song is about anger, despair, confusion, and conquering your own demons. Whether it’s your own, or trying to help someone get through theirs. This song is probably one of the heaviest on the record and discusses what is sometimes an even heavier topic. Enjoy at your own risk!’
‘Sweet Suicide’ follows the previously released single ‘Pangs Of Conscience,’ which opens the eight-track album. The announcement describes Lowest Form as retaining the band’s classic death metal foundation while bringing leaner arrangements, more varied pacing and a broader atmosphere into the songs. Its emphasis is on giving riffs space and moving between aggression and sustained tension.
200 STAB WOUNDS consists of Steve Buhl on vocals and guitars, Raymond Macdonald on guitars, Todd Thompson on bass and Owen Pooley on drums. The announcement places the record in the context of the band’s extensive touring and live work.
Arthur Rizk, whose credits include Power Trip and Cavalera, produced, mixed and mastered Lowest Form. James Bousema, whose credits include Municipal Waste and Frozen Soul, supplied the artwork. The announcement’s band photograph is credited to Gabe Becerra.
