Review Summary: The noise you never thought you could hear.
What could be qualified as music? It is simply an sounds that are arranged and have an intention or emotion that is decided by the composer. Fat Worms of Error completely changed my idea of music, creating a sound all their own. When I was a kid I remember that some noises were so loud that they hurt. I would have to hold my hands over my ears at an airshow whenever the Blue Angels or Thunderbirds would be flying over. The noise from the jet engines flying by was so loud that it hurt my young virgin ears. My father laughed as I panted around getting my eardrums raped. Eventually enough of these extremely loud noises killed off enough of my hearing so that no sound could ever possibly be too loud again. I thought the pain and humiliation was finally over. This brings me too Fat Worms of Error. The music they play is so sharp and abrasive that I believe if played loud enough it could kill you. The creativity they have with music is just so wonderfully awful. The payoff is that some parts are so bad that it makes you laugh. This is an album meant to make you laugh, it is a completely new take on music; sounds so bad that they are hilarious. But it's painful sound; they have covered the entire spectrum of hurtful sounds with this album. You can feel the flimsy aluminum lid from a can of Campbell's tomato soup slicing your thumb open. That stupid pain when a tiny cut could be annoyingly painful. During the explosive tantrums of hurt they'll precisely pluck the *** of a guitar string while tightening or loosening the tuning peg. They simulate the sound of the creak of a floor board in a dilapidated vacant house. The rhythm section is done perfectly using what sounds like objects they found lying around in a hoarder's attic. Most songs sound like a kid shouting as he runs around a house destroying anything he can get his hands on while his parents are at the store. I must admit it's hard to create something beautiful, Fat Worms of Error do the exact opposite. They create the most awful and disgruntled sound you've ever heard. I must say that they seem to have put alot of effort to create such a filthy, painful, mess of an album. They've created a genre all their own, Painful Hurtcore, and I doubt that any other band in the universe can do a better job at. Until now I never thought a human could put themselves through this much pain to create a full length album. Caution: This Will Hurt You
