"Single of the Weak" is the ninth single by Essex alternative metal band InMe. It was the first single to be released from their fourth album Herald Moth. It was released on 31 August 2009. The cover artwork for the promo CD was designed by bass player Greg McPherson and contains his brand new Inme logo. This was also the first Inme single to include the use of profane language and as such, a clean version was released to video and radio stations.

The song is a sarcastic attack on the currently pop saturated British music charts. The song has a mock indie pop sound in its verses but also contains a guitar solo backed by complex polyrhythms. It was written in response to a record producer who told InMe that their songs for their 4th album Herald Moth should be shorter, catchier and not contain any guitar solos.

The single had relative success and received a moderate amount of airplay on British rock radio stations and received vast amount of airplay on Scuzz TV.
