Extended info
Единственный альбом одного из многочисленных проектов Мика Харриса. Как обычно - мощно, тяжело и мрачно.

The album What Do You Know About It (WSCD026), a WordSound exclusive, is a spine-tingling trip through the dark dungeons of dub-hop. Imagine the offbeat breaks and bone-crushing bass of Scorn married to subsonic ambience and melodic riffs and samples treated with Harris's own brand of deviant dub surgery. While minimalism is the key here, subsequent listenings will reveal layers of ethereal beauty creeping through the cadavers of these ill sonic remains. The Weakener nicely fills the niche left by underground favorites Scorn, while taking Harris's productions to the next level--deeper into the abyss, that is.
Behind the closed door, you will fumble around in confusion, sink into a stupor, and get clouded by the haze. This place is not for the weak of heart. What do you know about it? Absolutely nothing until you take a leap of faith into the darkness.

Непонятно, зачем это понадобилось выпускать под другим названием, если по музыке от Scorn ничем особо и не отличается.

Непонятно, зачем это понадобилось выпускать под другим названием, если по музыке от Scorn ничем особо и не отличается.

Да нет, все-таки отличается. Хотя, конечно, альбом в том же духе, что и Скорн второй половины 90-х, но вряд ли получится его с каким-то из альбомов Скорна перепутать - здесь все еще более монотонно, заторможено и вязко.
