Wormrot - Abuse 2009 (T.V.G. Records German release)

Straight up grind from Singapore with hate, politics, and a bit of humor. Wormrot are one guitarist, a drummer, and a vocalist.

But this T.V.G. release is much sweeter with 110 limited red wax. And don’t forget to check-out Rotworks, art by Arif their vox.
