200 Stab Wounds

If you are into the heavier side of the local music scene, you might have noticed that 200 Stab Wounds is heading to Brighton this summer. The Cleveland-based death metal band is scheduled to perform at Dust on Saturday, 8 August 2026. It is a straightforward gig for anyone following the current death metal circuit, especially given the band's recent activity following the release of their second album, Manual Manic Procedures, which builds on the sound they established with their 2021 debut, Slave to the Scalpel.

The show is being put together by OMEGA Live and BYP Live, in partnership with Avocado Booking. For those planning to head down, the doors at Dust are set to open at 19:00, with the music starting shortly after at 19:30. The event is scheduled to wrap up by 22:00. It is worth noting that this is an 18+ event, so you will need to have your ID ready at the door.

Tickets are currently priced at £19.80. This total includes the £18.00 face value of the ticket plus £1.80 in booking fees. Given the band's reputation for what some listeners categorise as 'caveman party rock' or slam-influenced death metal, it should be a fairly intense atmosphere at the venue. If you have been keeping up with their trajectory since Slave to the Scalpel, this date in August is the opportunity to see how the new material translates to a live setting in Brighton.
