Corpsepaint

The narrative follows Max, the notorious leader of black metal band Angelus Mortis, as he embarks on a journey to Ukraine to record a comeback album with the elusive Wisdom of Silenus. This venture reveals deeper themes beyond the music, exploring the destructive nature of creativity and the complexities of human existence. Drawing inspiration from the unsettling works of John Hawkes and cosmic-pessimist philosophy, David Peak's Corpsepaint delves into the dark side of artistic expression and the consequences of embracing nihilism.
