What's the most depressing album ever made?
>>63678477
Not by standard definition I guess but it really sounds like death
>>63678477
>There's banging on the wall
>It's 5am – I've got no sleep at all
>Just thoughts of how I might
>Struggle through tomorrow
>Too much time in one day
>Too much time to occupy
>With boring thoughts
>And boring moods
>And boring bedtimes
>Won't tell a single soul that my soul's gone
>It's hard to write this song
>It's all a joke
>It's all been wrote down by someone who's probably dead
>I might be leaving soon
>I might be leaving soon
>>63678623
i think it sounds more like anxiety rather than death
>>63679253
I can see that but what about all the somber and despairing moments? It sounds like complete abandon.
Pic related has got to be up there.
Dead - Musical Abortions
The songs sound nice, but the lyrics kill your father and rape your mother
Science called, the results are in: This is the objectively most depressing album ever made, please stop asking.
anything by red house painters
>>63680912
You're fucking retarded and your taste is sheltered beyond repair.
Tumblr-core will never be good.
easy
>>63680945
I said science called the results in, fuckboi.
>>63680996
Didn't care for your shitty joke then. Don't care now.
End it.

I know this thread is all about being a whiny bitch, but you'll have to accept that sometimes your whiny bitchiness is not as correct as other whiny bitchiness.
In this case, that >>63680912 is the most depressing album, objectively. Factually. If it upsets you that much, then it just proves the point further, you pisspoor excuse of a cumbucket.
>>63681170
Frankly, Mr Shankly, the Smiths are trash, jangle pop will never be depressing so stop replying anytime.
>>63681212

>>63681222
You see depressive anywhere mate?
You fucked up didn't you?
>no instrumentals
If you can only be moved by words you might want to give literature a try, instead of music.
>>63681298
post something then
>>63681294
>AUTOMATED TAGS ON MEDIOCRE SITE PROVE YOU WRONG!!!!!!111!!
Worse than a p4klone.
>>63681326
>automated
lel no - they're voted for by everyone who uses the site you dumb fuck
admit you fucked up
>>63681372
Automated in the sense that it wasn't just the one guy who sat down and typed the tags, cumrag.
>admit you fucked up
Fucked what up? That's the most depressive album ever made.
Erik Satie - Gymnopédies
These three variations are pretty light and simple but it sounds so sad.
>>63679051
this has to be on the list
Electro-Shock Blues - Eels
Nothing comes close.
Electro-Shock Blues was written largely in response to frontman Mark Oliver Everett's (more commonly known as E) sister's suicide and his mother's terminal lung cancer. The title refers to the electroconvulsive therapy received by Elizabeth Everett when she was institutionalized. Many of the songs deal with their decline, his response to loss and coming to terms with suddenly becoming the only living member of his family (his father having died of a heart attack in 1982; Everett, then 19 years old, was the first to discover his body).
Later, the album's emotional climax is reached in two tracks: "Climbing to the Moon", which draws upon E's experiences visiting his sister at a mental health facility shortly before her death; and "Dead of Winter", a song about his mother's painful radiation treatment and slow succumbing.
>>63681433
this is a good possibility.

>>63681294
Are you seriously using these tags to prove your point? Shit man, make a cohesive statement why you don't think the album isn't depressing, don't just rely on statements of others. Especially when 2 of the tags are 'lonely' and 'melancholy'
Dystopia - Human = Garbage
Especially the samples are really uncomfortable to listen to
>>63679085
We're all gonna die
>>63681268
It's quite a fun album despite what happened to Amy Winehouse
>>63680966
The Angelic Process. Nice
>>63681500
the only right answer
redditors wont know it though
>>63681500
Why? This is hilarious!
This is some pretty embarrassing-tier sad music /mu/.
>>63679240

I'll add in Matt Elliott - Drinking Songs. Seriously fucking depressing. Not in the normal cliche sounding way.
>>63682615

>>63680966
That is one crushing album

even if you dont understand the lyrics
People actually bought this idiot's album.
>>63678649
Shit
Your boi Giles was pressed to death during the Salem witch trials becuase he would snitch
Shiieeeet
I find this album to be extremely sad, has an overwhelming feeling of loneliness to it
>>63680966
This is correct. Especially given the story behind it.
>>63679085
it's kind of life affirming at the same time too, such a great album
>>63682686
> No Leonard Cohen

>>63682597
>>63680966
These aren't sad albums
Mutual Admiration Society - s/t
I've never seen this album discussed here, but fuck it's sad. The whole thing just has this unending loneliness to it, and not in some cheesy, 3edgy5u middle school sort of way. It's just this measured, building sadness. Like somebody who knows that everything is fucked and is just dead to the world because of it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVVk91DcaeY
>>63681170
But this is incorrect because that album is not depressing at all.
>>63681362

>>63678592

>>63683366
> not how to disappear completely
Do you even radiohead?
They don't sound generally sad, though. I nrver feel sad listening to them...
I mean, I feel sad all the time. I just don't feel any sadder while I listen to their songs.

>>63683816
this, i remember walking all the way home from town (a good 9 miles) listening to this baked and upset, i met up with some girl but she only met me because she didnt have the courage to go walk up to the guy she liked and needed me there to walk her over
the only and only time ive ever experienced cucking
>>63681506
This album is very underrated.
>>63682615
ugh, Hospice is trash
>>63683868
nothing off Kid A hits me in the feels.
it gives me a natural high, maybe a little creepiness with some of the haunting noises, but not feels
>objectivity
just stop
>>63681011
But this means that the joke should continue because it is very, very funny.
>>63680265
I'd personally choose s/t if I were being truthful about my feelings
>>63679293
Also, this
>>63681362

This song is pretty fucking depressing.

This album is my favorite one.
Most nihilistic and poignant album I've heard in awhile
Does anyone have a depression-core chart?

>>63684984
Hospice is all about breaking out of a difficult relationship with a person you wish you could save and it does a brilliant job at that.
So of course you wouldn't understand it, keep upboating your "tfw no gf" albums :^)
>>63685383
This is the real answer.
> did you ever notice the kind of thoughts i got
>>63686598
Glad to see at least one other person on /mu/ even knows this masterpiece exists.
>>63686186
That doesn't make it sonically interesting.
>>63681733
Not really depressing, just brutal.
>>63679354
The fucking ending to this album is bone chilling.
>>63680945
You're fucking retarded and your taste is sheltered beyond repair.
>>63681294
It has one sad song on it.
>I know it's over, still I cling
>>63681715
it has to be this t b h, with all thatstuff behind it
>>63679384
I love me some Prurient but I didn't like this as much.
>depressing album thread
>130 replies
>no one posts Nick Drake
c'mon
>>63686640
Well OP said depressing, it doesn't necessarily have to sound good
>>63684518
this is sadder than I Could Live In Hope
>>63686621
It's got one good song
>>63687054
>>63686621
it's a /mu/core album you donkey
>>63686935
What made you dislike it more than other prurient? It is a bit of a departure from other stuff, but I thought that it was overall really good, aside from Greenpoint.
