Hookworms' reputation, like 'The Hum' itself, lies in the drone and the uncontrollable constants of their music that remain even after they've shattered its thick atmosphere with sharp punches of proto-punk-inspired malevolence. Flinging themselves into the public?s consciousness with 2013's 'Pearl Mystic', their debut LP's perfect storm of billowing textures and napalm-filled Modern Lovers licks was one of the most-acclaimed albums of 2013 -- receiving plaudits from The Guardian, NME & Drowned In Sound -- where it was their Album of the Year.
