I tried to kill myself once to "falling through a field"I mean I failed but you know, for me it's a depressing album.

The Ghost of Tom Joad is another somewhat depressing Springsteen folk album.

Johnny Cash - American Recordings
Nick Drake - Pink Moon
Iron & Wine - The Creek Drank the Cradle
Leonard Cohen - Songs from a Room or even Best Of
Neil Young - Harvest
Sufjan Stevens - Seven Swans

Some are better than others. But they all remind me of Nebraska

Couldn't make it through the movie, but I love the soundtrack. Also The Marble Index by Nico. And just about anything by Tom Waits.

>>64718361
Simply epic

I'd argue Carrie & Lowell is the most depressing Suf album but his whole discog has various sentimental canyons. Even Age of Adz has stuff like Vesuvius and I Want to Be Well.
>>
bump, no drums will bring you there
