Depressing music.

[face_head_mouth]

Soundgarden's last two albums (Superunknown and Down on the Upside) are both very depressing in an intoxicating sort of way that makes you want to keep listening. This song in particular gets to me; it has a sense of quiet resignation and defeat about it that makes it more relevant to me than some of the more over-the-top depressed music does:

 

[Kadoodle]

Space Oddity. That ending always messes with me.

 

[SergeMC]

"I'm all alone, I'm all alone."

 

[Toaster Hunter]

Adagio for Strings by Samuel Barber, one of the most depressing pieces of music ever made.

 

[SsilverR]

Got a few in mind

1. Missing (Evanescence)
2. Falling again (Lacuna coil)
3. Moonlight sonata (Beethoven)
4. You (Breaking benjamin)

I used to know alot more but i Don't really listen to that much depressing music anymore

This song really makes you feel there is no hope left and that you can't do anything about your incoming death.

It's pretty badass.

I love the band Down, but Over the Under was a massivly depressing album (thanks Phil) and the last track tops it. http://youtu.be/5J4trNtRwoc Nothing in Return.

This is quite depressing, in a fun amusing way.

Even though it doesn't sound like it, if you really listen to the lyrics it's quite depressing.

Coheed have a habit of making songs with depressing lyrics sound quite upbeat

 

[EcoHulk]

Pretty much any Modest Mouse song, well... except Float On.

 

[LarenzoAOG]

This song gets me teary every time.

Coheed have a habit of making songs with depressing lyrics sound quite upbeat

I think the prime example would be Three Evils.
