When ever I'm feeling incredibly depressed, I listen to this EP on repeat. The songs are all fairly simple and easy to listen to, but very bleak and melancholic. The self-titled Giles Corey album has too much going on and I find it difficult to listen to, even though it is beautiful.

Islands is a pretty moody album that carries me through sad times. Red is another one, but Providence can be a little too dark for when I'm sad. Starless and Bible Black does the trick too.

Looking to something more recent, Drake's Views is pretty good for listening to when sad. It's pretty mellow and moody overall.

This is depression, not sadness. Those are very different things.

I guess that's fair. But, I'm chronically depressed and listen to a variety of music, yet I still always return to Six and Six in particular (and other Jandek, sure) when I'm at my worst

>>65018994
That's my point. Jandek is something you listen to when you see no point in life and aren't able to produce any emotion, not when you're feeling sad.
>>
>>65019066
I dunno man, there might be crossover though. "at my worst" I'm often crying for no reason, maybe there's a bit of emotion to be found there. depression expresses itself different ways. of course it is certainly characterized by lack of emotion, though, I won't deny that
>>
>>65016214
Hi OP.

The classical (we're allowed classical here, right?) piece of music, "Spiegel Im Spiegel", by 'Arvo Part', from the album 'Alina'.

Great piece.
>>
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0va3F2PWBJc
>>
>>65019120
Well I guess we just experience depression and sadness differently. I listen to a lot of Jandek when I'm depressed but I couldn't imagine getting emotional and crying to it, while that could very well happen with a slightly less depressed album like >>65018917. Jandek has some of the least emotion I've ever heard in music.
>>
>>65019362
For me depression is about dealing with not having anything in your brain, emotion, direction, motivation, preference. And sometimes it can be too much to bear and ironically produces some emotional response. Or yeah, for blue corpse, breaking up will make you sad too. I think it's very sad music, just also obsessive and stuck on one small problem, so maybe in one way there isn't much range
>>
>>65019470
Yeah, I can get that kind of feeling, but I tend to get angry at depression before I'll get sad.
>>
>>65019528
That makes sense, and seems consistent with your relation with jandek I guess- there's a lot of bleakness and a lot of sadness, but maybe not much anger
>>
>>65019552
There's definitely anger in this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQQh1TciNS4
>>
>>65019622
Lol, well... Maybe. I have to say I've never been particularly fond of the electric end so haven't listened to it too much. But a lot of his rattly full band music like in foreign keys or modern dances seems more theatrical and surreal (and droney, as always) than angry, and I don't remember, but maybe the electric end is the same in that way. Can't listen now regrettably since I'm on my phone
>>
>>65019622
Maybe there's some anger but it always seems ironic and self directed and deprecating. But who knows how much I project myself onto him and his music
