BIOGRAPHYTE – next chapter of CHERNOBYL DEATH METAL
The record is the 5th full-length album by the Germany-based tech death band CYTOTOXIN.
With their new release, CYTOTOXIN explores their roots and takes listeners on a journey through the radiated wasteland of Pripyat. BIOGRAPHYTE dedicates each song to a memorable location, thus narrating the biographical story of the tragic catastrophe in 1986 and those who were affected. Symbolically depicted in the cover artwork, humanity is doomed to carry the consequences of the reactor disaster with it for eternity. The title track itself reflects the situation of firefighters picking up graphite bricks on the night of the explosion, causing irreversible damage to their skin and bodies, which often led to fatalities.
