Open Wound is a british Noise and Industrial-label run by Trevor Ward, also a founding member and one half of The Grey Wolves.
Open Wound has it's roots in a tape label named Anal Probe, started in the winter of 82/83 by Ward and his later Grey Wolves-cooperator David Padbury. Anal Probe lasted until the spring of 85, when Padbury moved to Manchester. He started a label of it's own, called Artaman Tapes (also in discogs), which later became Sol Niger (also in discogs).
Ward started a label called Zeal SS, which became Zeal Of England, switched back to Zeal SS, then changed it to Death's Head Unit and many further names as Atrocity Network, Strength Through Awareness Branch, New Strength, Lebensborn, Transformer, Industrial Heritage, Industrial Warfare and -finally- Open Wound.
In October of 2008 Trev Ward renamed the label Order Of Wolves. In a message on his site, he stated, "I've been aware for quite awhile that the name i'd been using for my label since about 1990 was being used by others (labels / groups / shops / books / etc). After giving it a bit of thought, i decided to ditch Open Wound in favour of Order Of Wolves. Order Of Wolves carries on from Open Wound and our industrial underground operations continue."
