Released in November 1995, Heartworm was Whipping Boy’s second studio album. While it didn’t go on to become world-renowned or sell multi-million copies, it’s an album that is still held in very high regard by those who remember it from the time, and new generations of music fans that have discovered it through the years since its release. Tonight Dan Hegarty profiles the album and the band during this period of their career.
