"Imagine I have a big pot of 100 great influences, I mix up everything and try and forge something new. I loved the above music (influences section) and grew up with it, it had an effect on me, I make music, some people call me a musician, I call myself an artist, I paint pictures with music....I call the finished piece Weak13"

Behind the music of WEAK13 and NICK J.TOWNSEND
***********************************************************
WEAK13 is a British industrial / metal / grunge act, founded in 1999 by NICK J.TOWNSEND in Kidderminster, United Kingdom. As its main singer, producer, songwriter, and instrumentalist, Townsend is the only official member of WEAK13 and remains solely responsible for its musical and artistic direction. WEAK13's music is every genre with metal overtones. Townsend recruits a live band to perform with him on stage after recording WEAK13 songs in different studios.
NICK J.TOWNSEND is a British underground musician, singer and multi-instrumentalist. He operates under the studio name WEAK13.
WEAK13 has remained underground and independent by choice for many years as Townsend refuses to be controlled by record companies. The music has been passed around the underground for many years and only became known to a wider general public recently when Townsend signed his first ever publishing deal in 2007 with Newsound Records who released the DEATH MACHINE e.p. on iTunes. The deal still left Townsend full artistic control of the music
43 Track Album to celebrate 10 years of WEAK13
*****************************************************
To celebrate 10 years of the music of WEAK13 an album will be released which will change the music industry. Nick J.Townsend announced on 09.09.09 that he has an unreleased 43 track album which he will release at his discretion. Until now he has never released a WEAK13 studio album. The 43 track album has taken him 10 years to write and in his own words will be "One of the most dangerous albums ever". Nick has recorded most of the album with an engineer who uses very unorthodox methods who goes under the name 'Crazy MULE'. Other producers such as Matt Tarbuck and Craig Grove have also worked with Nick J.Townsend.
Fréhel - Si tu n'étais pas là has inspired the WEAK13 album.
"The sound of the old 1930’s vinyl really made me think about how I want the whole album to sound, I want to capture unwanted noise and give it a place and home on WEAK13 songs. Valves and hiss are instruments of their own"
Quote: Nick J.Townsend
WEAK13 is inspired by 1980's Video Nasties, Underground music, Comic books, The Grunge and 90's music scene and real life. Each song is a different story. Lyrics about loved ones who have passed away, songs about the future, death, life, survival, friendship, love, hate and positive thinking. All the guitars on all the recordings are played using strange dark low tunings. WEAK13 is any style Nick J.Townsend wants to be. From Industrial Metal fused with death metal guitars to Dark electro beats entwined with Low tuned acoustic guitars. WEAK13 is every form of music in it's rawest form. There is a song for everyone.
NICK J.TOWNSEND breaks as many rules as possible. Wanted feedback, dark subjects, erratic song structure, raw sounds, one take recordings, surreal ideas and hook lines that you will never forget. There is only one WEAK13 but there are many sounds....
Classic WEAK13 tracks available on iTunes.
