With the demise of Scorn, many fans felt they had lost the world's greatest
precision dub project. Instead of waiting for the corpse of Scorn to grow cold,
Mick nutures his newest musical offspring, The Weakener. The same military
cadence and precision of the percussion remains omnipresent, while the
atmospheres mutate into new forms. The critical difference between Scorn and
The Weakener is that the tempo is dramatically slower. Each composition appears
more lethargic than the last regardless of a rather consistent beat per
minute. Also of note is the complete absence of vocals or vocal samples which
Mick used to varying degrees throughout the lifespan of Scorn. The Weakener is
a purely instrumental affair, built on the strength of beat rather than
poetry.
The Weakener is: Mick Harris
