Released in November of 1995, Heartworm was Whipping Boy's second studio album.
While it didn't go on to become world-renowned or sell multi-millions, it's an album that is still held in high regard by those who remember from the time, and new generations of music fans that have discovered it through the years since its release - ahead of its reissue on September 3rd, listen to When We Were Young - The Story of Heartworm above...
