Wormrot - Hiss (Album Review)

-

 

via Wormrot's official Twitter

    Every single time I would listen to my 'Dirge' CD I purchased off Amazon a few years back or listen to any of Wormrot's music on Spotify (especially their third full length album Voices), I would literally wonder when they were ever going to start putting out music again. I instantly had hope that this year might in fact be an okay year for me when I got the notification that Wormrot had a new single out. 'Behind Closed Doors' was the name of that single and it fucking shredded. My actual first thoughts were to just go tell Taya, the person I live with and I guess mostly spend my life with, even though she is 1000% not into this kind of music. That's just how much I was excited.

    Wormrot is a grindcore band from Singapore that have been creating and producing some of the heaviest, fastest, and (quite literally) some of the best extreme metal since the year 2007. For more reasons than none, the band is also known for going viral in 2011 when pictures of them performing with a goat were posted online.

Metal Injection

    Months went on and they released a total of five singles for this album. I listened to four of the five when released (Behind Closed Doors, When Talking Fails, It's Time For Violence!, Weeping Willow, Voiceless Choir) and somehow missed the last single 'Your Dystopian Hell'. These singles that I jammed prior to album release were all what I was hoping for the next Wormrot record to sound like. If the album was going to be less 'grind' I knew I was going to dislike the album, but luckily for me I loved the entire album because it's the perfect grindcore-combinated project to me at least. A few random songs here and there have amazing experimental Violin sections and pieces done by Myra Choo which add a perfected *chefs kiss* eerily mind bugging uniqueness to this project.

    Out of all 21 total songs on this album, not a single one is disappointing, every song is incredibly heavy in their own ways. Songs that I frequent would have to be Sea of Disease, Desolate Landscapes, Grieve, and Voiceless Choir, but like I said I really really enjoy every song. What do you think?

Investigating ChezzKids Archive or 'Chezz.com', The Most Interesting Internet Mystery | www.Rhetter.com

     At first glance when stumbling across the YouTube account ' ChezzKids Archive ', one might actually scroll on implicating that it's actually an archive channel that posts content from an old early 2000's flash game called 'ChezzKids'. The channel presents the content as 'findings', explaining that Chezz.com A.K.A. ChezzKids was an old website for kids to learn and play flash games that hasn't existed since the early 2000's as it went defunct leaving no trace of its existence anywhere online. One person as it seems has dedicated the YouTube account, an Instagram account, and a Twitter account to Chezz, asking any viewers for information or other findings they might have. And if you haven't guessed it by now, the Chezz website, flash games, and just all of it in general aren't real pieces of lost media and it was all created for the purpose of entertainment, but to me it's an extremely interesting and unique ongoing art piece that

  Freddie's Inferno album cover via SoundCloud     To the surprise of fans and everyone alike, Freddie Dredd released his newest album titled 'Freddie's Inferno' to all streaming platforms at midnight on August 11th, 2022. Giving just a slight preview as to what the album holds, Freddie sneakily released three singles prior to the albums release, 'Greed', 'Wrath', and finally 'Kick Rocks' which features fellow rapper Lil Darkie and was released just two weeks ago. Last night I sat down and played some Call of Duty Zombies and listened to the whole album nearly twice. It's tight twenty eight minute runtime is a bit shorter than I was expecting it to fully be after seeing Freddie Dredd tweet two nights ago about the album. But, I enjoy that runtime more than his previous albums, 'Suffer', which was a whopping sixreen minutes long and only ten tracks. Playing that album once is disappointing because it ends so quickly, but with Freddie&#

What's Going On With Ezra Miller? | Rhetter.com

      One of my favorite movies of all time is the Kyle Patrick Alvarez film The Stanford Prison Experiment, which was released in 2015 by IFC Films and starred Billy Crudup, Ezra Miller, Tye Sheridan, and Michael Angarano among many others. I had always thought Ezra Miller's sanity losing role in that film was executed perfectly and captured my attention and emotions for sure. But these days, when I hear about Ezra Miller, it's always really bad things. Usually he's getting arrested or causing controversies on Twitter, and as of recently if you don't already know he has been arrested again which it isn't surprising, but the reasonings behind it this time definitely are surprising. At least to me.     Miller, 29, was arrested for a felony burglary on August 7th, 2022 after being identified on a security camera installed either inside or outside of the home. He decided it was a really great idea to sneak in and steal 'alcohol bottles', as reported by almost e
