Nurse With Wound, often stylised as NWW, is a British experimental music project formed in 1978 by Steven Stapleton, John Fothergill and Heman Pathak. After Heman left the group in 1979, it effectively became a solo project of Steven Stapleton with various assisting musicians over the years.

Focusing on aesthetic ideas and philosophies inspired by the Surrealist movement, Nurse With Wound is considered a contemporary extension of Surrealism. Their unique sound has earned them the reputation of being 'purveyors of sinister whimsy to the wretched.'

It could be argued that Brained and Cooloorta are the definitive NWW E.Ps. Both classic and timeless fan favourites appear for the first time together on one single album. Both E.Ps marked a distinctive change in the NWW sound. Brained from 1984 showcases NWW at their mid 80's finest. The relentless churning and uncompromising music of Brained by Falling Masonry is complimented by the eccentric mania of JG Thirlwell's vocals. A Short Dip in Glory Hole takes us into the murky depths of a David Lynch influenced nightmare, a lysergic unhinged movie for the ears, which greatly influenced the Peter Strickland film Berberian Sound Studio. Cooloorta Moon from 1989 takes us in a whimsical direction and further highlights the boundless originality of NWW. The evolution of NWW utilising more traditional instrumentation and bordering on the verge of song structures started coming to the fore on this E.P. In addition to all the original songs from the Cooloorta and Brained EPs, the 2010 track, Sarah's Beloved Aunt perfectly closes this collection.
