Delving into the horror of sound
Greetings all, i've just started on a project with a couple of friends of mine, each of us has to come up with a 30 song playlist containing the most unsettling, terrifying pieces of music we know. I so far have around 20 tracks, which are posted below. What im asking from you is do you have any other suggestions, and if you were to do one of these, what would your 20 consist of?
Mine thus far: Comus - Bitten Cromagnon - Toth, Scribe I Set Fire To Flames - There Is No Dance In Frequency And Balance Henry Cow - Solemn Music Fifty Foot Hose - Cauldron Popol Vuh - Die Nacht Der Himmel Michael Gordon - Excerpt Three Bauhaus - Double Dare Massacre - Gate Daniel Johnston - Despair Came Knocking Trencher - Nightmares On Crack St Art Bears - Civilization Faust - Mamie Is Blue White Noise - Love Without Sound The Residents - Isolation Swans - Beautiful Child Arab On Radar - God Is Dad Flying Saucer Attack - Rainstorm Blues Mount Eerie - My Heart Is Not At Peace This Heat - Cenotaph Throbbing Gristle - What A Day Nurse With Wound - Two Mock Projections The Telescopes - Oil Seed Rape MARS - Hairwaves This Mortal Coil - The Horizon Bleeds And Sucks It's Thumb. I've left out bands like The Cure and Siouxie & The Banshees because i wanted to go down a more challenging route. Last edited by Sneer; 12-14-2009 at 10:41 AM. |

Some personal favorites of mine that you could benefit from checking out.
Violent Femmes - Country Death Song Violent Femmes - Never Tell Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Tupelo King Crimson - 21st Century Schizoid Man (For sheer mindblowing factor) Leadbelly - Where Did You Sleep Last Night? Leonard Cohen - Avalanche I'd post some more but I've got to run. Last edited by Rickenbacker; 12-14-2009 at 03:33 PM. |

Check out Spires That In The Sunset Rise. Really it depends on who your audience is, if it's someone who already loves Comus then good luck freaking them out. If it is someone kind of new to the harder stuff to get into then even easy listening like Nick Cave should do the trick. It's all subjective in my book.
These are some pretty interesting artists that Zarko was writing about. |

I was listening to this earlier on and you should take something off this:
and this: Dead Machines are a good bet too.
