122 Stab Wounds were a Norwegian death metal band
formed in 1989. They were formerly known as Agony then changed name
to 122 Stab Wounds.
The band name is derived from four murders
in which the victims were in total stabbed 122. According to the
booklet of
The Deity of Perversion: "On the 23rd of
October 1982, a boy was found stabbed to death 32 times", "On the
4th of November 1962, police found a dead man. He was stabbed 41
times", "On the 11th of September 1969 police discovered a dead
girl in her own house. She was stabbed 19 times", "On the 26th of
October 1979, a woman was discovered dead in her home. She had been
stabbed 30 times".
However, after the release of their debut
album, the members had little time for this band as they were
occupied with their other projects including Gehenna and Forlorn.
In 2002 the band decided to focus more on 122 Stab Wounds and
changed name to
The
Deviant, and as such released their second album
Ravenous
Deathworship in 2005.
