"We don’t understand how this is possible. Thank you to all you have bought our records and giving us your constant love and support," the group thanked their followers in a statement.
Wormrot's 21-track record includes the singles 'Behind Closed Doors', 'Weeping Willow', and 'Voiceless Choir'.

"Every album is something new, something we’ve never done before," Wormrot shared with Bandwagon in an interview. All our albums don’t sound like each other. You will see progress and a different sound with each of them. I think this one sounds even more accessible than Voices and also, a bit more experimental because we took our time with it."
Following the departure of former vocalist Arif, Wormrot announced that they've opened auditions for a new extreme metal vocalist, preferably with various vocal styles that range from low, mid, and high screams, hardcore, and powerviolence, with no inhales. All genders are welcome.
NOW OPEN TO WORLDWIDE. Do note that there is a chunk of touring for 2023, and you definitely need some capital ($) of your own. pic.twitter.com/Z5gArRSJQE
