Depressing Music
 

I am in a situation in which I like this girl a lot, but she doesn't like me, and it is very frustrating. It would be helpful for some recommended albums that have to do with this feeling. Thanks

What the hell is wrong with you?! Cmon man have a heart. :nono:

Anyway... Maybe Hurt by Nine Inch Nails. Thats what comes to mind right now, but If I have more I might post emm... but ya, don't dwell on it too much dude...

johnny cash's version i better and really chokes me up when i hear it actually

The Cure - 80s album.

Well the first 3 80s albums anyway.

Try

Konstantine- Something Corporate
Not For All The Love In The World- The Thrills
Are You Sad- Our Lady Peace
Relapsing- Boys Night Out

Go to your room.
Put in The Downward Spiral - Nine Inch Nails.
Turn the volume up.
Turn off the lights.
Lie down in your bed.

Try
Slow Show by The National
Wet Sand by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Feel So Low by Porcupine Tree
Everybody Here Wants You by Jeff Buckley

and also how about trying to talk to her about your feelings...?

Tell her to fuck off and enjoy the freedom!

If someone hasn't suggested Blood on The Tracks yet, well, they should be slapped in the mouth.

69 Love Songs.

Ok, I'll go slap someone in the mouth. ;)

These aren't love songs, but they are depressing. Alice in Chains, Joy Division, Mono, Burzum, Katatonia, a bunch of other doom. Listen to Stop Swimming by Porcupine Tree and Comptine D'Un Autre Ete by Yann Tiersen. King Crimson's Starless starts off so delicately that you might shed a few, but it will most likely drive you mad by the end of it. :D

Disintegration is the ultimate depression album, it's an album to wallow in despair to. Also try Closer by Joy Division, it was recorded just before Ian Curtis died and its a very disturbing album to listen to.

Picking up on Seltzer's recs, Mono & World's End Girlfriend - Palmless Prayer/Mass Murder Refrain is one of the most beautifully depresssing records I've ever heard. Definitely agree with both Stop Swimming and Feel So Low for sad PT tracks. Any Katatonia is good but for me Brave Murder Day tops all: hearing Mikael Akerfeldt growl: 'The sound of falling...' in Brave is just amazing. I'm surprised that Portishead and Massive Attack haven't been mentioned, as Dummy and Mezzanine are excellent albums to brood to.

But Xasthur is the stuff, if you can handle it. Although I wasn't that impressed by his HH records debut, Defective Epitaph was a good return to form. Oh and check out Shining too!

Edit: oops, can't forget Jesu - s/t! Tired of Me would probably be the best track to go for in these circumstances.

just feel better- santana

that would be my favorite for depressing situations although thrash metal tends to calm me down nicely if your looking to get over it :/ dont know if thats wierd or not

it'll help if you vilify her some by listening to certain songs....

breaking benjamin - simple design
cold - stupid girl
Ne-yo - Go on girl
Bright Eyes - lover I don't have to love
Damone - leave me alone

The Smiths

- I want the one I can't have
- Is is really so strange?
- Unloveable
- Last night I dreamt that somebody loved me
- Asleep
- I know its over**********************
- Miserable lie
(Y)

Jeff Buckley, Radiohead, Bjork, The Wall, Joanna Newsom

Amongst others of course

how the hell is joanna newsom depressing?

radioheads all that i need makes me really depressed ..

I don't understand what people find so depressing about radiohead.

i am guessing it's just me but personally the vocal is kinda mellow ..
in that song in particular
i duno

but i like them thought

I'm a great one for not listening to lyrics at all, and she has some great songs that are just mind blowingly depressing if you ignore the wierd lyrics.

I.E. I listen to a lot of instrumental so i tend to treat other music that way too. Very rarely do i care about the lyrics.

Fad Gadget - King Of The Flies is an extremely depressing song in my opinion.

Yeah, I think it's just Thom Yorkes voice in some of their songs, especially the slower ones, sometimes it can sound pretty depressing

Elliott Smith - Say yes
Kind of fitting i think..........

honestly i wouldnt listen to something depressing if i was already depressed.......it makes me feel worse..........and about the girl i know how it feels but you have to move on

Brand New - Deja Entendu
