Albums for depression....

[requiem]

Lets assume we're all morose motherfuckers (yeah, like we're not already). What albums would you listen to if you could just wallow in your melancholia for a dark weekend?....

Katatonia- Last Fair Deal Gone Down
Moonspell- Darkness and Hope
Anathema- A Fine Day to Exit
Saturnus- For the Loveless Lonely Nights

I think I'd probably end it all after a weekend with just those albums....

What do you people think?

p.s This is a cool thread.

 

[Hobo]

Katatonia - DO
Anathema - Judgement
Jeff Buckley - Sketches for my sweathart, the drunk
kent - Vapen och ammunition

and to finnish the weekend of with a bang:

sentenced - excuse me while i kill myself (yes, it is only one song, but hey, you must go with a laugh...)

 

[without]

anathema - judgement
anathema - a fine day to exit
katatonia - DO
tool - sober (only that song not the whole album!!)
paradise lost - Gothic
My dying bride - Like gods of the sun

So start one! Y would!

 

[Windom Pearl]

Katatonia - Brave Murder Day, Discouraged Ones

That´s it. Maybe some October Tide, but I would have to go and get them from Nevershine. And that wouldn´t do good to my deep, deep depression at all. It might be cured. So just Katatonia.

Esoteric - Epistemological Despondency
Thergothon - Stream From The Heavens
Anathema - Eternity
Anathema - The Silent Engima

Katatonia - Brave Murder Day
Ulver - Kveldssanger

Tell me about it. I only have the samples and I'm hanging out for that album. I check the only metal store in Melbourne and the miscreant hadn't even heard of the band...

I'll have to order it.

 

[Don Corleone]

Katatonia- Last Fair Deal Gone Down
Moonspell- Darkness and Hope
Anathema- A Fine Day to Exit
Saturnus- For the Loveless Lonely Nights (i directly copied your list, you see)

of cathedral

Really, Cathedral?? I always saw them as party music. 'Hopkins', 'Midnight Mountain'. That's celebratory stuff!

Well, it's a doom record I have always dreamed of!
The atmosphere is so unique I even don't know how to describe in words (in paintings, maybe...)
The keyboards are awesome, almost of soundtrack quality(noir movie perhaps).
There are both male & female vox, the male ones of Pasi of Amorphis, providing monstrous growls AND clean singing, the female ones rarely sing the words, only the notes(adding the melody to the crushing guitars). There's a bloody violin too, so, I don't think I need to say more...

are you getting wet yet?

REM - Happy Shiney People

Play it over and over again, you will lose your depressive state but sure will drive you into a pyshcotic rage.

yeah those seem to be "celebratory," but after all they are a doom band. not every song is like that.

 

[Don Corleone]

weapon x- psychotic rage? why? i love that song. im a huge fan of the band.

 

[Weapon X]

I'm not, I guess it will be just me goin crazy.

Wet? I ejaculated some time ago.

I was astounded at Pasi's vocals on the sample... and now I can't wait until I hear the whole album. God.... it's fucking exactly what I've wanted for so many years...
