Hello everyone.
Novichoke is a Russian black/death metal band named after chemical weapon, which has become synonymous with political assassinations. On the one hand, this name emphasizes the venomous sound of the project, on the other hand – anti-authoritarian political views. The first demo "Wounds" is inspired by cavernous death and war metal bands, but I wanted to create something particularly ugly and insane by adding a noisecore vibes.
This EP is about hopelessness and trauma. I also wanted to draw attention to the problem of torture in Russia. In particular, the title track tells of the inglorious end of the executioner, who was abandoned by the government and found himself alone with his wounds.

The cover is a painting by the extremely talented artist Luis Perez Banus – you can find him here: https://www.instagram.com/perezbanus/
The sound from the wall of noise was created by Andrea Lenoci (it wasn't easy because of the method of recording guitars): https://www.instagram.com/andrea_molrec/
I would be grateful for any feedback and happy to answer questions. If you need a code for Bandcamp, write about it in the comments or a private message.
