Since its debut in 1995, Heartworm by Whipping Boy has evolved into a legendary rock album that stands the test of time. This expanded edition not only celebrates the band’s powerful shift from their dreamy debut ‘Submarine’ but also highlights the raw emotional storytelling of lead vocalist Fearghal McKee. With its release coinciding with the rise of Britpop, Heartworm emerged quietly yet undeniably impactful, alongside noteworthy albums like Radiohead’s ‘The Bends’ and Manic Street Preachers’ ‘The Holy Bible’.
Now available as a Heartworm remastered album purchase, this reissue by Needle Mythology Records features a meticulous remastering by Sean Magee at Abbey Road Studios and includes a treasure trove of previously unreleased tracks. Accompanied by insightful liner notes from renowned Irish music journalist Colm O’Callaghan, it’s a must-have for rock aficionados.
