The Cure - Disintegration


You know I never got that album, But I love that song...and a lot of songs on that album.
It doesn't matter though, because it would have been on CD for my car collection, and that Collection was stolen. :-(

Elliott Smith -- From a Basement on the Hill

Released post-humously, most of the songs were written during a period where Elliott was very depressed and addicted to crack. I would rate his first two albums as significantly better, but I don't think any album in his collection is more depressing than this one--Even without the meta-context of the album. Alternatively, I could just put Elliott Smith - Discography.

ANOHNI- HOPELESSNESS

Anhoni's first album after officially transitioning, it's also a completely new blend of more industrial and electronic instrumentation. Talks a lot about the real, horrifying issues of the 21st.

Baths - Obsidian

Excellent electronic album. Written during and after he had been battling a long-term illness for many months, Baths puts together a barrage of assaulting then gentle songs that deal with existential dread, suicide, and failed gay relationships.

Bright Eyes - Letting Off the Happiness/Lifted or The Story Is In the Soil...

Connor Oberst just wrote a lot of sad songs during the early and mid 2000s. Songs about suffering, despondency, suicide, the flaws of modern life, obsession, or addiction. Listen to that lad wail.

Father John Misty - I Love You, Honeybear

Great for that sardonic, devil may care attitude we all have sometimes. Mostly just an album of him ranting about how fucked up or ridiculous being a particpant in this wildly self-destructive rat-race is.

GSY!BE - Allejuah! Don't Bend! Ascend!

Four lengthy tracks of droning sadness and desolation.

Have A Nice Life - Deathconsciousness

A nice metal album that I find actually connects well in depressive moods. An album that deserves to be taken seriously, or at least more so than most in the genre.

U.S. Girls - Half Free

Don't know what it is about this album, but it feels like someone shouting into the void to me. Maybe more up-tempo than more conventionally depressing albums, but it contrasts well with the heart of the subject matter.

ironically the last song in his sad, final album before his suicide is incredibly uplifiting.

Yeah, I thought about including Nick Drake but his stuff always struck me as more folksy than depressing most of the time.
