About Wormrot
Hailing from Singapore, Wormrot have carved out an undeniable legacy as one of the most potent forces in contemporary grindcore. Formed in 2007, the band quickly gained international acclaim for their blistering speed, ferocious intensity, and a surprisingly intricate approach to a genre often associated with pure chaos. Their sound is a relentless barrage of short, sharp shocks, blending pulverising riffs with a dizzying array of tempo changes and a vocal delivery that ranges from guttural roars to high-pitched shrieks.
Their discography is a testament to their unwavering commitment to their craft. Albums like “Dirge” (2011) and “Voices” (2016) solidified their reputation, earning critical praise for their technical prowess and thematic depth, often exploring social commentary through their furious soundscapes. Their latest masterpiece, “Hiss” (2022), saw them further refine their unique blend of brutality and precision, showcasing a band at the peak of their powers. The current lineup, featuring the relentless drumming of Iskandar, the razor-sharp guitar work of Rasyid, and the potent vocal delivery of Gabriel, continues to push their sound into exhilarating new territories. Wormrot don’t just play grindcore; they redefine it with every performance, making them an essential act for any fan of extreme rock music.
