My first time ever hearing Weakling's Dead as Dreams

[Perdition's Light]

Oh. My. Fucking. God.

This is the BEST epic black metal I have ever heard.
This is mind blowingly good. I was really starting to get bored with most of my music. I downloaded it but this is something I'll definitely look for a copy of.

What's their story? Why did they break up? Are any of the members involved in any other projects?

 

[J.]

some members of Weakling are/were in The Fucking Champs

 

[Perdition's Light]

wow, that was quick.

The Fucking Champs...I've heard a few of their songs. Sounded talented but I couldn't really get into it.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Weakling fucking ruled.

 

[Jean-Pierre]

That album was pretty damn good.

 

[no country for old wainds]

I can see why some people seem to be worshipping them, but they don't really strike me that hard. Good album though.

 

[Krilons Resa]

They absolutely rule. We need em to get together and make another...not likely though.

 

[Ivan the terrible]

I NEED this.

 

[Aegrimonia]

could someone possibly send me a couple tracks from this album? i've been looking very hard to find some of their MP3s, but nothing. My e-mail is AnEpicDefiance@aol.com ok, thanks

 

[no country for old wainds]

Well I would, but you use AOL and I'd feel dirty.

I somewhat take comfort in the fact that Weakling is now defunct, as their album will never be tainted by something less than itself.

Definitely.

Weakling are fucking great. I love all of the guys who put "tr00" Norse black metal before any of the BM bands regardless of musicallity. I've literally had people tell me that Panzerfaust (darkthrone) beats out Dead as Dreams.

Yep. I wouldn't go as far as saying it's the best epic black metal I've ever heard, although it is really good American black metal. You can sense the strong Burzum influence yet it's not a clone of the band.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

It didn't grasp me as hard as it did some others, but it's a very solid release nonetheless.

Do a bit of scrolling and you'll find that you can own this album, if you so choose.

 

[Astral Poetry]

I found mine by luck in a used bin at some random store.

 

[Nocturnal Silence]

This band always sounded pretty boring to me...

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

This band always sounded pretty boring to me...

What's the matter? Can't stand epic 15-20 minutes songs? Poor baby.

 

[RjBeals]

Just bought it and am anxiously awaiting....
