FalconPilot An absolutely astounding band, and would you believe they were just getting started with this first album? In a welcome contrast to the somewhat-unnerving cover art, this US Death/Doom is as pensive and ominous as it is strangely beautiful. The early works of the amazing Czech band SSoGE always come to mind, and it's great to hear such sincere bearers of the Doom torch carry it into hitherto-unknown territories as the pioneers of the early days once did...

about

Originally released in 2017, remastered for vinyl in 2020.
All digital sales go to the band.

"More than any other album I’ve ever worked on, Weeping Sores feels like the product of fate. Steve and I initially conceived it as a proof of concept - barely even a demo - for a future band, and we didn’t expect to release it, even informally. I hadn’t met Gina yet when I wrote most of the material; she was a last-minute addition after we’d recorded almost everything else. But the songs we tracked in Steve’s frigid basement during the winter of 2016 took on a life of their own as we mixed them. Once Gina’s violins were in place, we knew we had something worthy of daylight in our hands. It’s a primitive recording, but an honest recording. You can still smell the sweat on these songs, and I remain very proud of them." -- Doug Moore

released February 9, 2021

WEEPING SORES is a doom/death metal band featuring the talents of Doug Moore (guitars, bass, vocals) and Steve Schwegler (drums), both of PYRRHON and SEPUTUS, and Gina Eygenhuysen (violins) of TCHORNOBOG and HELL. WEEPING SORES' approach to doom/death is highly personal, mediated by their admiration for bands like EVOKEN, WARNING, YOB, and MORBID ANGEL, among others. Soul-wrenching at one moment and suffocating the next, WEEPING SORES have carved a singular, searing path for themselves during their young career. They have released two recordings to date: Weeping Sores (EP, 2017), and False Confession (LP, 2019).
