'''Debopom Ghosh Must Be Killed''' (often abbreviated **DGBMK**) is a one-man experimental noise and blackened-noise project from Dhaka, Bangladesh, operated by musician and visual artist **Debopom Ghosh**. The project blends harsh noise, drone and black-metal aesthetics into abrasive, textural compositions and is primarily distributed via Bandcamp, SoundCloud and streaming services.<ref name="bandcamp">https://debopomghoshmustbekilled.bandcamp.com/</ref><ref name="spirit">https://www.spirit-of-metal.com/en/band/Debopom_Ghosh_Must_Be_Killed</ref>

== Biography ==
DGBMK began releasing material in 2022–2023. It is a DIY solo project (Debopom writes and records the material) and has issued EPs, albums and file releases on small labels and self-released channels. The Bandcamp profile describes the project as “Blackened noise, misanthropy and self-destruction.”<ref name="bandcamp" />

== Musical style and themes ==
The music is characterised by dense noise walls, processed/harsh vocals, drone passages and field-recording textures. Themes frequently include nihilism, trauma and anti-orthodox imagery; titles and artwork mix Bangla and English language elements.<ref name="cyclic">https://www.cyclicdefrost.com/2023/09/listen-to-blackened-bangladesh-noise-from-debopom-ghosh-must-be-killed/</ref>

== Notes ==
This article is based on primary artist pages (Bandcamp, SoundCloud), label release pages (Akkrosh/DHOooooomKETU), Discogs metadata and niche press coverage. Because DGBMK operates mainly through DIY channels, mainstream media coverage is limited; niche/scene sources provide most of the verifiable coverage and interviews cited.
