Scorn was created by Mick Harris in 1991 to create rhythmic, hypnotic drum and bass music.
In a very short period of time, Scorn has emerged as the vanguard of both the post-rock and isolationist aesthetics; appropriating such distinctly communal musics as hip-hop and dub to extreme, individualistic ends.

 Scorn - Mick Harris at The ROCK List   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
Releasing material through Earache as Scorn (his ambient dub aegis) and through Sentrax as Lull, in addition to other sporadic projects, his genre-spanning activities have done much to jar the minds, expectations, and record collections of audiences previously kept aggressively opposed.
To the present, Scorn and Lull, along with John Zorn's experimental jazz-dubcore outfit Painkiller have remained Harris' primary ongoing projects, although one-off collaborations with the likes of James Plotkin, Nicholas Bullen, Bill Laswell, and Martyn Bates are common.
Harris formed Scorn in 1991 in collaboration with bassist Nick Bullen, incorporating elements of ambient, industrial, dub, rock, and hip-hop.

 Mick Harris Discography
A wonderful collection of different styles that flow seemlessley together, this record demonstrates that the Scorn sound can be manipulated and twisted into a host of different things, by a variety of people and still retain its unique depth.
In fact, only two of the 10 tracks are by Scorn, and those two are remixes.
For one, Nik Bullen's vocals are only present on one track (Laswell's chthonic mix of "Night Ash Black".) The tracks here often clock in at epic lengths, ending up more like orchestral movements or shamanistic trance workouts than they were in their first incarnation.

I never really was a scorn fan; while respecting creative diversity of mick harris, I was never able to get into his stuff.
to begin with, this album is *fun*; it has a grooving, energetic sound that emanates not the childish, happy kind of fun (after all, scorn *is* “no joke movement”), but rather a well-thought out, enjoyable fascination with sound and moods that have a groovy yet quite edgy atmosphere.
at the end those contrasting elements is what makes this record so interesting; both themes (rhythmic and ambient) are strong in scorn’s music, therefore giving it a touch of both worlds, hypnotizing and energizing at the same time.
