"There are worse things..." was created on one day in mid-december using only a guitar and a Digitech RP-90 effects pedal. A cell phone was also used on one of the tracks. The end result is manic no wave noise frenzy. The title of the album is taken from a Bukowski quote. Front and back photos are by Distorria Mordred. All audio created, manipulated, and destroyed by Royce Icon.

Royce Icon started putting out records in late 2003, originally under the F.U.S. moniker. Since that time he has released over 17 solo records on various labels throughout the U.S. and world, including RRRecords, Kaos ex Machina, Snip-Snip, Enough Records, Smell The Stench, Roil Noise, Realicide Youth Records, Noise-Joy, Bump Foot, tibProd, Agonal Period and the Greywork Industries label, which he co-ran with Distorria Mordred. He has also been involved in over a dozen other projects and bands, the most notable of such being Die Rote Form, TVkill, Quim, Tactilvision, Wendy Is Staring At me and Violent Messiah, as well as the newer project Starvation Ritual. He co-runs the Agonal Period Netlabel.
