pleasure of the flesh to taste the pleasures of the flesh you must chew through the fat, gather around the family carcass tearing apart the scraps. i can smell your antibiotics leaking from the greenest vine. you must rip from the root and rape it until you've reproduced.
2.
porcelain egg i wake up hung-over and sick. legs to weak to stand. crawling towards the can. my burning thighs kiss cold porcelain. shivers up my spine. sweat down my skin. i look down with the feat of a man condemned. i look down as i bear an abomination. it's grown legs. it's grown a tail. eyes guide it miles. from it's porcelain shell. in search of shelter. in search of a mate. something to worship something to hate. long lineage later, having taken the earth adapting and evolving, with each strange new birth.

Birds 02:34
birds my only goal in this life, my only life aspiration, is to one day live at the top of the tree - squirrel bent over my knee - spanking the bastard with my red right hand, till finally he understands. i'm in control. everyone's trapped in this hell except me and my display of dead birds. i keep 'em kept in their varying poses, and they never stop shrieking. i'm in control.
4.
Up Stream 02:53
up stream oh god, i'm gonna cum. a slow arch of the neck, a long gently tug, and i release - into the sun through caverns measureless to man, down to a sunless sea. like so many obedient salmon, trudging up stream.

death to pigs aw mamma. i'm still hungry. outgrown the nipple and i want the meat. come on, mama. can't you hear me? i'm hungry. i want to feed! AHHH! aw, mama. i'm still hungry. come on, mama. i'm still hungry! AHHH! a growing boy left to his own weaker instinct and raging hormones will eat it's own shit like a dumb animal and masturbate until he's rubbed himself raw. a growing boy, despite himself, will thrive, caged and swelling, into a full grown pig

about

During the mid 2000’s Worshiper was quickly gaining a reputation as one of Philly’s loudest bands in the underground scene. Worshiper, made up of lifelong friends Mike Parry, Curt Howard, and Benji Davis, had a tumultuous few years; self-releasing their debut To Binge And Purge In LA and embarking on their first and only tour with Boston's Bad History Month. Though they had a rowdy and devoted cult following, their first release never quite received the accolades it deserved. That being said, they carved out their place in Philly history with their intense live performances and heavy raw sound. They disbanded soon after in part due to songwriter and frontman Mike Parry’s battle with opioid addiction. On June 16th 2021, after years of progress, Mike relapsed and sadly lost his life. The impact of his death permeated the music scene leaving many friends and fans stunned.

Strange Mono has been working with Curt and Benji to try and breathe a second wind into the criminally underrated album that Worshiper produced in 2010. We are announcing a reissue of this tape and are donating 100% of the proceeds to benefit Prevention Point in their mission of harm reduction in the city of Philadelphia.

Recorded at Philly’s legendary Sex Dungeon Studios in one afternoon, Worshiper is sludgy post-hardcore at its pinnacle. This fully remastered cassette reissue features a previously unreleased song and includes the original recordings as well.

We hope that this release can raise awareness about one of Philly’s best bands and help to promote health, empowerment and safety for communities affected by drug use and poverty.
