Jamiroquai makes me want to smoke as much pot as the person who is making me listening to it has so I can't hear it anymore.

i've got a friend who when we were younger was disturbed by the fact that i didn't like jamaroquai and every time the subject of music came up he would tell anyone who would listen that i didn't even like jamaroqui

What, you mean like seriously. You actually didn't like Jamiroqui? I've read about your like in the Daily Mail.

Joy Division's "In A Lonely Place" - essentially a suicide note, and such a moving song to me that I still can't listen to it objectively.

Radiohead - nearly half of their songs are depressing, 'cause of Yorke's voice, I suppose.

Arab Strap are probably the most depressing band i've heard.

Here's some lyrics of theirs that will cheer you up...

"I know you find my habits sickly.
I know sometimes I cum too quickly."

"She chucked me, then chucked me out, and I cried all over the bus."

"Phone me tonight when you're pissed.
Just to tell me that I'm missed.
Tell me you want me in your cunt.
Tell me you're not sure what you want."

"The room stinks of poppers, the bog's full of bile.
At least I'm not shitting blood again."

Absurdly good call!

This isn't a good one when you're down, either. Plus it has the best music video EVER!

New Dawn Fades is also quite depressing. "I've walked on water, ran through fire. Can't seem to feel it anymore"

atsonicpark 07.06.2008 05:54 PM

new dawn fades is one of the only joy divison songs i would say that is amazing.

greedrex 07.06.2008 06:10 PM

it's certainly an alienating thing to listen to, which in turn can be depressing.

atsonicpark 07.06.2008 06:38 PM

canned heat is awesome.

xxlouiisxx 07.06.2008 07:08 PM

Nine Inch Nails' Downward Spiral is depressing, especially Hurt, though it's a beautiful song !

Everyneurotic 07.06.2008 07:11 PM

mcr makes me want to cut myself.

atsonicpark 07.06.2008 07:13 PM

crystal castles depress me in a "Why would anyone listen to this shit?" way

Death & the Maiden 07.06.2008 07:35 PM

For me the three most depressing albums I've heard go as follows:

3) slint - spiderland
2) lou reed - berlin
1)pink floyd - the final cu(n)t
