WEAK13 - The music
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....

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
