5.Can you tell us a little bit more about the artwork that is presented on the ep cover?
5. Our artwork was made by Andrey from Tøtskver https://www.instagram.com/totskver/. On the front cover is fake extrasensory man like a symbol of gloomy absurdism above all of us, our feelings and emotions, it’s strange at first sight and it’s the deepest darkness if you look inside.
