Just how low can a bass actually go? PEELINGFLESH provide the answer at Reload 2027—with a sound that has a name all its own: “Slamming Gangster Groove.” Slam and brutal death metal, with hardcore and beatdown edge, plus samples from hip-hop and Blaxploitation films. That’s identity. That’s attitude. A sound that both grins wickedly and completely runs you over.

Formed in 2021 in Oklahoma City—with former members of Strangled—PEELINGFLESH didn’t come out of nowhere. They know exactly how to blend groove and intensity in a way that doesn’t fall apart live, but instead draws the crowd in even more. Deep riffs, drums like a jackhammer, breaks that you can hear coming—and then that moment when a sample briefly fills the room and everyone knows what’s about to happen.
