Whorn is the eighth album by the Minneapolis-based noise rock band The Cows, released on March 26, 1996 by Amphetamine Reptile Records.
Whorn was the band's first time working with Tim Mac since their fourth album Peacetika. During the recording, Tim Mac opted for a "live sound", having the band play together as a whole instead of recording their parts individually.
All tracks written by Cows.
Jikan begins with a distorted sample of a Japanese woman speaking, followed by almost ten minutes of silence. After this silence, there is a brief track of the band performing a faster, funkier version of "The New Girl".
