Helios - Eingya
Emancipator - Soon it will be cold enough to build fires
Emancipator - Safe in the Steep Cliffs

>>66197455
Any album by Johnny Hobo, Ramshackle glory, Pat the bunny, or Wingnut dishwashers union,
Nothing do with love, all about addiction, homelessness, fear, loneliness, regret,and general scumbaggery

Shape of Despair - monotony fields

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

I'm not joking.

Pallbearer - Sorrow and Extinction

I'm gonna go listen to it right now.

If you really want to be depressed though, read about recent events regarding the band Sockweb.
>>
>>66200822
the lyrics are sad, and the meaning behind them. i could see how someone could listen to that album and not think that its a sad album because they werent paying much attention to the lyrics but it is definitely depressing. if youre talking musically/instrumentally than never mind

>>66200822

looks like someone is pretending to have listened to an album they never listened to, just to be contrarian :^)

>>66204134
That album is genuinely scary.

>>66198336
omg rip Ian <\3 ..

>>66204134
This album is about love, anon.

The dark age of love.
>>
>>66204134
i always feel the Musick To Play In The Dark albums are somewhat underrated. sure, The Ape Of Naples is great, but Are You Shivering, The Dreamer Is Still Asleep, Ether and Batwings (A Liminal Hymn) feel much feelsier to me.
