Winter Albums
 

Well, it's freezing here. It's coming up to the Winter season in the Northern hemisphere at least, and that means miserable weather. I'm sat here wrapped up in my duvet looking for something to listen to on my iPod. I'm sure some people disagree and like to fight off the cold winter nights with trying to brighten the mood with jovial music, not me. I like to put on something that matches the weather and mood, so hit me with some of your favourite albums to be cold to, be depressed to, those moody and atmospheric albums you love and match the miserable outdoors perfectly.

Too depressing? Meh. Bring it on.

I'm currently enjoying Antlers - Hospice for the minute, and The Cure - Disintegration is always a good one. I'll think of some more and post them here.

Also apologies if this should be elsewhere (and/or there is already a relevant thread which this could have got lost in).

Heresie by Univers Zero. Most depressing album ever. I love it!

Personally i'd say Faith by The Cure is much more wintry than Disintegration.
Everything about that album is cold & desolate.

That's one of the few Cure albums I haven't listened to properly yet. Perfect opportunity to now though, as the album I have just been listening to has just this minute finished. Saves me a decision, thanks!

Beck - Sea Change is another one of my favourites.

Sigur Ros- ()

It's all I own by them but it's really melancholy. I sometimes listen to it when I'm falling asleep

I agree about The Cure's Faith.

Also an album I picked up recently is Year of No Light - Nord. They are a French sludge metal band reminding me of ISIS. But their name and album name (meaning 'North') really make me think of a dark winter in the Northern Hemisphere.

Disintegration for sure. Also, For Emma, Forever Ago by Bon Iver is a definate.

Miles Davis' quartet spins some very wintery feelings on In a Silent Way. The cold organ and Mclaughlin's shivering guitar lines fit the cold and snowy Connecticut landscape these days.

I'll check that out. Winters where I live are hardly cold so I often listen to 'winter' albums whenever I want to imagine that I feel cold. I like moody, dirgy metal for the coldness.

Decemberunderground lol.
