Created over the course of two years with a cast of 47 musicians – including a gospel choir and a 16-piece string orchestra –&nbsp;The Worm&nbsp;is less a concept album than a fully-fledged musical universe, transcending genre and medium. Set in a disorienting anachronistic version of Medieval England – as steeped in dystopian sci-fi fantasy as it is folklore and Old English mythology – it’s part political polemic, part deeply moving psychological journey.

Though always admired for their defiantly genre-agnostic approach,&nbsp;The Worm&nbsp;sees HMLTD pushing sonic experimentation to a whole new level, from dissonant free jazz riffing to vintage soul and English folk fusions to rock opera. Major musical touchpoints included Stravinsky’s ‘Rite&nbsp;Of&nbsp;Spring’, Pink Floyd and Nina Simone’s rendition of ‘Sinnerman’ and references for the world of The Worm included 14th century texts&nbsp;The Canterbury Tales&nbsp;and&nbsp;The Decameron, Aleksey German’s 2013 sci-fi film&nbsp;Hard To Be A God, Bergman’s&nbsp;The Seventh Seal&nbsp;and Tarkovsky’s&nbsp;Andrei Rublev and the hopeful narrative arc of 90s mecha anime series ‘Neon Genesis Evangelion’.&nbsp;
