Wilkes-Barre hardcore band Worn will follow their 2021 debut LP Human Work and this year’s split with C4 with a new EP, Condensing Flesh, on September 1 via From Within Records (pre-order). The EP was recorded and mixed by Will Hirst and mastered by Brad Boatright, and its first single is “Entity and Form,” which we’re premiering the video for in this post. It’s a heavy, caustic hardcore song with a powerful lyrical theme, and it’s got some addictive grooves in there too. The band says:
“Entity and Form” is about how desensitized we are as a culture to atrocities of war and how people are even able to view some of these acts as entertainment. Lyrically and sonically Utopia Banished by Napalm Death was a big influence for the record and this song reflects that. The video was made by our bassist Pete and features live shots and spliced together footage from other media.
Check it out below. Worn also play Brooklyn’s Saint Vitus TONIGHT (8/2) with Raw Brigade, Never Again, and Beg To Differ.
