I played Swans' "Beautiful Child" in the car on the way to the beach recently and my friend said it made him worry about me.

I should have mentioned his affection for shitty techno and wanky classic rock worried me.

Also I've been listening to Prurient's Time Began in a Garden. Abysmal stuff right there.

Mortiis is eerie.

Yeah, gonna have to comb over this thread some more. I know most of these bands but yeah, I'm really into scary and disturbing shit.

Univers Zero are the only band I find "scary" especially Heresie.

Current 93's industrial stuff comes close, but I can't help but laugh at some of it ("MAAAAAAALLLLLLLLDOOOOOOOOOOOORRRROOOOOOOOOOOORRR RR SUCKING COCKS IN HEELLLLLLLLL!")

SuperCreep, didn't know you were into Univers Zero, I LOVE them...

SuperCreep 09.30.2009 07:43 PM

Their first four albums are really great, and they got me into Bartok too! I wish I could find some similar bands. Someone recommended me some Art Zoyd once, but it was way too wanky to be close to UZ.

i laughed so fucking hard at the suggestion that sparks are scary or disturbing or anything of the sort. tears of lol.

mark e smith disturbs me, but i ain't scared of no fall.

This richard chartier disc I just got..


It's all made with weird high-pitched computer noises, the highest possible pitches that can still be listened to with human ears (with plenty of other sounds I can't hear because I just opened a track up in Adobe Audition and looked)... the thing is, they're extremely brief, disconnected snippets of these irritating, ridiculous, excruciating to listen to bits... the rest of the album is completely silent.. I'm talking a 60 minute album of about 30 minutes of which is silence and the rest is this awful noise coming at you, and you never know when... it's terrifying to listen to, truely.

See, I find Throbbing Gristle REALLY funny. Maybe that's just me, though. Everyone always talks about how "creepy" all of it is and I never got it.

Ditto with Whitehouse and Sutcliffe Jugend.

Throbbing Gristle just doesn't do anything for me, one way or another, aside from one album...

Boring fart noises with P-Orridge going "waaaaahhhhhhhhh" through a Gristelizer.

This Is Not Here 10.01.2009 07:30 AM

Not bands, but: Scott Walker, Diamanda Galas, Pain Teens

for the people mentioning the buttholes, yeah, i didn't see them in the full-fledged freak mode of Kathleen, but the shows i saw in '89 and '90 were spectacularly awesome and disturbing.

i saw 'em last night.


it was a great set list, good performance all around, but there was not the slightest sense of uneasiness or creepiness...it actually reminded me of being terrified by a large neighborhood dog when you were a kid, only now thet dog's old, mangy, missing a few teeth and can only manage a half-hearted growl...the drool is the only disturbing bit left...
