I need help finding a song.

deedst4r · 04-23-2012, 07:42 AM

So i have an assignment for my english class to find a song that best represents the modernists time period. I am new here and just looking for help seeing that this looks like a great resource!

So the song needs to have some of these characteristics; chaotic, non-traditional, pessimistic, anger, dysfunction, and frustration.

I am looking for it to be mostly pessimistic lyrics and somewhat chaotic instrumentation. Any help is appreciated! thanks!

*no cuss words allowed BTW* (rule from teacher)

I do believe the 6 minutes of this song cover those 6 characteristics nicely

Thank you very much for the reply, I agree that it covers the characteristics great, i am just hesitant to show my teacher a song that is this hard of rock. I will use it if I do not find any other songs.

Anyone else? maybe a song that is less hard rockish?

Thanks guys!

Still looking for more choices. Maybe something more chill? acoustic sounding?

Thanks
