Wormrot is a Singaporean grindcore band that formed in 2007, immediately after the founding members had completed their mandatory two years of national service.[1] The band have released four studio albums to date, as well as a number of EPs and split releases with other bands. Since 2010, the band has been signed to Earache Records.[2] They have been described as one of the top 10 grindcore bands by OC Weekly, and have toured Europe and the United States.[3] In 2017, they became the first Singaporean act to play at the Glastonbury Festival.[4]
